Historical environment with panoramic river view
Pros:

View is very good if you select and ask for a room with best view. Nicely renovated historical environment. City below the hill is beautiful and filled with old wooden, but carefully maintained houses.

Cons:

Some surfaces might require bit renewal after years.

Trevligt hotell i historisk miljö
Pros:

Fin miljö på hela fästningsområdet och hotellet.
Mycket fin middag och helt okej frukost.
Trevlig personal.

Cons:

Toaletten på rummet är en lösning av frostade glasväggar som gör att hela rummet lyses upp på natten vid toabesök, samt är inte ljudisolerade. Även glipor runt toalettdörren. Man bör därför känna varandra väl om man delar rum ;)

Rimeligt, men ikke mere.
Pros:

Fin beliggenhed med nænsomt renoverede gamle bygninger

Cons:

Skulle bære kufferterne langt op ad stejl brostensbelagt vej, idet man ikke kunne/måtte køre op til hotellet og læsse af. Udsigt fra værelset var kun en stor mur! Maden var ikke speciel god, men det var morgenmaden.
