Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers comfortable and slick rooms with a 'sky terrace' view, ample size, large bathroom, separate WC, and a great shower. The modern and spacious rooms come with the requested bathroom setup including a shower stall and separate bathtub.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is simply perfect, right next to the train station and within walking distance of all the main attractions. The staff, including Sarah, Kim, and Lares, were not just excellent but went above and beyond to assist with anything I needed. The only downside was the dining options, which could use a bit more variety, especially for the price.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The location is fantastic for exploring both the countryside and the city. The room was spacious and well-insulated from outside noises, but the air conditioning could have been more effective. The service was exceptionally friendly and welcoming, especially from Christina at the Front Office. However, the limited seating in some areas was a bit uncomfortable.
The hotel rooms were like a studio apartment with a spotless and high standard presentation, offering great isolation from outside noise. The service was incredibly friendly and helpful, despite some previous instances of unfriendliness and impoliteness. In terms of location, the hotel sits right in front of the train station and is perfect for exploring both the countryside and the city. The dining experience, although a bit expensive with limited choices, had a nicely aid out setting. Overall, the hotel offers a comfortable and clean stay with a prime location and friendly service.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was cozy and well-appointed, though a bit smaller than expected. The service was top-notch, with the staff going above and beyond to assist with trip planning. The location was convenient, close to the train station and other attractions. The dining experience was enjoyable, despite a minor issue with one of our orders.
I felt like the stupidest person in the world trying to figure out the unconventional controls for lighting in our room; however, the rooms were excellent and had all the necessary amenities. The deluxe plus plus room with a tiny window and curtains caused some inconvenience for me as I couldn't switch off the air con due to allergies.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with clean and well-furnished rooms, albeit a bit small as expected in Europe. The night was extra special with nice small gifts awaiting me. The room was impeccably decorated, spotlessly clean, and had all the expected amenities easily accessible.
The hotel was lovely, with lots of efficiency additions and all the perks one might expect from this type of hotel. The rooms had a great modern aesthetic with a bathroom that was very large and a great rainhead shower, making it beautiful and very quiet. However, the service was quite rude at times, which was a drawback, but overall, a luxurious stay.
