We loved the prime location of the hotel, just a stone's throw away from all the main attractions of this city. It was also great to discover a charming restaurant tucked away from the main one, where a talented pianist was playing. being close to the shops made it convenient for us to explore and indulge in some retail therapy. The cleanliness of this hotel was impeccable, and the facilities, especially the pool and sauna, were a real treat. the staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, including celebrating a special occasion with personalized touches.
Nothing, all aspects of our stay in this hotel were excellent.

The location was perfect, as it was just a short walk to the city centre. The reception area was clean and tidy, and the staff at the front desk were very helpful. The room I stayed in was spacious and the bathroom/shower were also quite big. It was a nice touch to have a fridge in the room, and they even provided fresh milk. The food in the restaurant was absolutely delicious, and the bar/reception area had a nice ambiance. the location, cleanliness, hotel facilities, and the friendly staff made my stay here memorable.
Everything is what I need and want.
We had a fantastic stay! The hotel was very clean and recently refurbished, with a nice room and bathroom. The staff was friendly and efficient. The car park was conveniently close by. The breakfast was delicious with lots of choices, and the staff made it fun and easy for our young family with a welcome gift for the children and an Easter egg hunt. The hotel facilities, including the pool and gym, were great. The bar staff in the evening were super friendly. The location was good, as it was easy to walk to city attractions.
