Pros:

Die Dachterrasse ist ein Traum.
Überall gibt es kostenlos Getränke im Eingangsbereich und ein Kaffeezimmer. Sehr schön eingerichtetes Hotel,schon im Eingang kommt man zur Ruhe.
Super gute Kopfkissen, schon lange nicht mehr so gut im Hotel geschlafen.

Cons:

Es gibt eine große Decke , wie in Spanien oder Italien für zwei, beim Buchen bitte angeben, wenn man getrennte Decken haben möchte. Oder im Hotel vorher anrufen. Wir waren 2Nächte ,da hatte es uns nicht gestört

Great rooftop bar
Pros:

Unusual property beautifully restored and converted into a hotel
Thought through small bathrooms, wonderful room design with super high ceilings

Cons:

Sewage smell in the hallway all over the property
The room no 209 has a terrible view on to flat roofs with technical installations, ACs and rubbish which is a massive down led of our experience. Rooms with such a view should be cheaper.

Zentral gelegenes Hotel mit besonderer Architektur
Pros:

Die zentrale Lage des Hotels in der Nähe der Innenstadt und zum Rhein sind super. Das Design des Hotels ist sehr schön und außergewöhnlich. Das Zimmer war geräumig und sehr sauber. Die Bar Botanik im Dachgeschoss hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Hotelpersonal war kompetent, zuvorkommend und sehr freundlich.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist doch etwas renovierungsbedürftig. Möbel und Böden zeigen deutliche Gebrauchsspuren. Die Frühstücksauswahl ist nicht mehr so umfangreich und gut wie vor zehn Jahren, als wir schon einmal in diesem Hotel übernachtet haben. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt für uns derzeit nicht.

Pros:

It was silent and nice view

Cons:

AC didnt work, had to bring out a mobile one, then the window/door key got missing so the tube couldnt got brought out so it was still over 26+ degrees in the room, the parking 29 a day is not included. the shower and sinkwater was only super hot or hot. we left a night earlier because couldnt sleep from the heat. We were supposed to have a refund discussed and never happened.
