Expensive but lovely
Pros:

Central location (though I usually avoid this) high end hotel with excellent staff. Breakfast was amazing

Cons:

Attracted a largely non Italian clientele. The hotel restaurant served good food but the restaurant itself was spartan and lacked ambience

Sehr empfehlenswert auf allen Ebenen. Herzlichen Dank für die freundliche Bedienung in allen Belangen.
Pros:

Zentral gelegen, sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal, sauber, sehr feines Frühstück immer mit einem Lächeln serviert.

Cons:

Die Frühstück‘Box da wir früh abreisen mussten. Ein Sandwich mit innen zb Käse oder Salami hätten wir wertgeschätzt. Oder 2 echte Gipfeli.

Pros:

Location and staff

Cons:

The music in the Restaurant.. American Pop .. changed the whole ambience .. Britany Spears and Beyonce etc…would rather had italian music or even Dean Martin if it had to be American .. even though food was very good I would not eat there again because of music.. by the way same music for breakfast.

Great location with helpful staff
Pros:

The accomodation is centrally located. The staff is excellent, helping customers with their requests. We left behind post cards, and these arrived without any issue to their destinations.
The hotel even helped arrange a taxi to the airport.
The breakfast was delicious and a reccomendation
Deffinitly worth taking into consideration.

Cons:

It is a bit on the pricier side, but the service you get is compensation for a lot.
