Pros:

Hotel znajduje się w centrum Linz. Śniadanie było bardzo różnorodne i smaczne. Pokój był czysty i komfortowy.

Cons:

Wjazd samochodem na parking był wyzwaniem, ale to nie dziwi, biorąc pod uwagę położenie hotelu.

Pros:

Für mich eindeutig eines der besten Hotels in Linz.
Besticht durch die Lage, ehrliche Freundlichkeit und Service.
Fein ist auch das Lokal dabei.
UND für alle, die den Marathon im April genießen wollten: stellen sich mit Frühstückszeit auf das Event ein.

Cons:

Ein Ablagekästchen im Bad wäre fein. Größe aber fein.
