Jesteśmy bardzo zadowoleni. Przywitano nas serdecznie i pomocnie. Dobra lokalizacja, kominek w pokoju i klimatyczne mies
Pros:

Pomocna i zaangażowana obsługa hotelu. Stara klimatyczna winda. Dobra lokalizacja i kominek w pokoju.

Cons:

Śniadania mogłyby być bardziej dopracowane. Nawet jeśli nie ma kuchni to można by postawić majonez do jajek na twardo.

Pros:

Hotel mit britischem Stil, viele kleine skurrile Details in den gemeinschaftlichen Räumen. Frühstück für amerikanische Verhältnisse gut, es fehlte eigentlich nur Käse. Happy Hour am Kamin am späten Nachmittag mit Wein, Cräckern und Käse. Sehr freundliches, zuvorkommendes Personal.

Cons:

Das Sofabett in der Suite ist sehr unbequem, viel zu dünne Matratze, daher kalt. Das zugehörige Zimmer ist im Erdgeschoss direkt hinter der Rezeption zur Straße, es ist daher leider sowohl von außen laut, als auch von innen, wenn sich jemand an der Rezeption unterhält.

Pros:

The staff was very friendly, check in was smooth and quick. The valet parking was quick and responsive. The included breakfast is a plus, though quite basic. The location is excellent, I felt like everywhere is within the walking distance. We enjoyed our stay here.

Cons:

It's a fairly old building, so you might hear some noise when people moving in the corridor. I'm a light sleeper, so a tiny inconvenience.

My stay was good. The place felt just ok. The breakfast was mid.
Pros:

They offered breakfast. Easy check-in. Good location. The room was nice, but no A/C and everything feels dated and not intentional.

Cons:

Overall, the place just needs attention. It's nice enough and my stay was fine. But it felt dirty and like it was neglected in general. I see that it could be amazing, but right now it still needs to be updated, even with the retro theme.

I would definitely stay here again
Pros:

A very nice boutique hotel. The room was large and comfortable, with a great fireplace and big windows. The wine and nibbles in the afternoon, as well as the all-day coffee and tea were a great bonus.

Fabulous.
Pros:

An oasis in the middle of the city. Quaint and quirky in a nice way. Something different from the mainstream. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Old fashioned hospitality. We loved the lounge/ dining area and the after five drinks and nibbles. A lovely touch. Rooms were well appointed.

Cons:

Nothing. A lovely place to stay. Different but nice. Definitely a place we would stay again
