Pros:

Ontbijt en ligging waren zeer goed.

Cons:

De kamer was zeer klein, aan beide kanten van het bed nauwelijks 20 cm over, geen plaats vopr koffers. Uitzicht op een donkere binnentuin. Foto’s van de reservering kwamen niet overeen met de werkelijkheid…

Fevkalade
Pros:

Roma, amsterdam, brüksel, köln vs gibi pek çok ülkede yaklaşık bu fiyatta otellerde kalmış biri olarak söylemem gerekir ki otel gerçekten şahane, tertemiz hergün odanız lavabolarınız temizleniyor, kahvaltı gerçekten şahane füme et, sıcaklar, sürekli meyve ve dondurma reyonu, tatlılar kekler kruvasanlar cidden müthiş bi deneyimdi. Girişte tv de çizgi filmin açık olması dinlenirken bize rahatlık sağladı. Hiçbir sorun yaşamadık, odalar kocaman konumu gerçekten çok iyi neredeyse her yere yürüyerek gittik. Biz türkler olarak kaldığımız otelin kahvaltısı bizim için çok önemli olur kahvaltı cidden iyiydi. Ayrıca taze sıkılmış portakal suyunun kahvaltıda olması çok iyiydi

We had a lovely stay in Vienna largely because of our wonderful accommodation in this friendly well located hotel
Pros:

Beautiful old building, friendly and helpful check-in where lots of information was provided . Our room had plenty of space and was very comfortable. The little bar area in the foyer was a great place to rest and have a drink and the attendant was friendly and attentive. The location of the hotel enabled us to walk to most of the key sights.

Cons:

It was perfect
