DISAPPOINTING
Pros:

Location good

Cons:

Reception staff NOT welcoming or pleasant. Seemed they didn't want to work there. Front door is LOCKED with NO PRIOR communication as to how to enter. I finally saw a small bell to ring, which you had to do every time you wanted to enter the building. WIFI not very good too. No prior communication as to how to get to the hotel since roads were closed due to a marathon. Taxi had to drop me off blocks away and I had to walk and find the hotel on my own.

Zentral! Komfortabel! Verhältismäßig preiswert.
Pros:

Katedral hat einen einheitlichen Design-Auftritt mit saisonalen Dekorationen, die bei uns gerade von Weihnachten auf Valentinstag wechselten. Das Zimmer war nicht so groß wie mit 40qm angegeben, aber völlig ausreichend. Der Balkon und die Dachterrasse bieten tolle Ausblicke - und für den Vorteil der zentralen Lage muss man die Straßenmusiker oder zu Beginn die Weihnachtsmusik am 12.Januar in Kauf nehmen. Der angebotene Parkplatz ist gut erreichbar und entspannend nutzbar.

Cons:

Die Nachttischlampen erhellen das ganze Zimmer, nicht punktgenau. Der fensterlose Frühstücksraum ist recht klein, wie toll wäre er auf der wenig genutzten Dachterrasse! Etwas Abwechslung bei mehrtätigen Aufenthalten wäre wünschenswert.
