Hotel mit besonderen Stil
Pros:

Tolles Hotel in schönem Ambiente, man fühlt sich in der Zeit zurückversetzt

Cons:

In den Zimmer ist immer ein „Brummen“ zu hören und das Frühstücksbuffet hätte noch vielfältiger sein können(z.B. Müsli, Joghurt etc. fehlte)

Fantastisch mooi hotel!!
Pros:

Geweldig mooi hotel met een heerlijk ontbijt.
Wij hebben in het Italiaanse restaurant gedineerd, het was fantastisch en de bediening was ook geweldig.

Jammer dat we maar 1 nacht hier verbleven.

ESPECTACULAR
Pros:

ESPECTACULAR, TODO FUE PERFECTO!! La atención del personal es exquisita, todos súper amables y atentos. El hotel es precioso, tiene dentro un pequeño museo, pastelería propia, una tienda de ropa y una biblioteca. Una maravilla. Las habitaciones grandes y muy limpias. Todo está cuidado hasta el mínimo detalle. La piscina muy agradable. El desayuno también muy bueno, con opciones de todo tipo. Un día lo tuvimos que pedir para llevar y tras elegir de qué tipo lo queríamos, nos pusieron unas cajas con el desayuno espectacular. Sin duda una estancia muy especial y maravillosa. LO RECOMIENDO 100%.

Cons:

Me gustó todo.

Room for improvement
Pros:

Nice decor, room was spacious and bed was really comfortable

Cons:

I think we were given one of the worst possible room locations. Our room was right next to an alley, which meant we couldn’t really open the curtains to let in daylight without people walking past being able to look directly inside.

Unfortunately, the noise was another major issue. Loud music was being played in the hallways from as early as 6 AM, and there seemed to be a loudspeaker positioned right next to our room. I had to ask the staff repeatedly to turn the volume down, which was extremely frustrating.

On our final day, there was also maintenance being carried out on the hot water pipes. The time for completion kept being pushed further and further into the evening, and by 7 PM we still had no hot water in our room. We were eventually offered a “more premium room” (the only premium thing was a window so the room had actual daylight) which we declined as it was our last night and it didn’t make sense to move rooms at that point. However, we did use the alternative room to shower.

Overall, this hotel has a lot of potential, but there are simply too many things that need to be improved. Better room allocation, noise management and communication around maintenance would make a huge difference to the guest experience.

Pros:

Miła obsługa.
Piękny wystrój.
Czysto.

Cons:

Lokalizacja- dla kogoś komu nie zależy być w ścisłym centrum to ten hotel jest ok. , 20 min spacerem do centrum. W okolicy parę restauracji, kawiarnie.
