Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms in the vintage building where I stayed had an espresso coffee machine, which was a nice touch, but the cleanliness could have been better, especially under the beds and on the steps leading to the rooms. The location was excellent, walking distance to major attractions, although some aspects of the dining experience could have been improved.
The hotel is situated in a beautiful area near the river, offering a quiet retreat just a few minutes from the bustling city center. The rooms are spacious and clean, with lovely garden views, although some areas like under the beds need better cleaning. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to make my stay memorable. The dining experience was enjoyable, featuring homemade delicacies, but the breakfast timing was a bit late for some activities. The location is ideal, providing easy access to major attractions on foot.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were cozy with a vintage feel and a lovely view of the garden, though I wish they had a kettle in addition to the espresso coffee machine. The service was exceptional, with a delightful welcome port wine and helpful staff who catered well to the needs of female travelers. The location was perfect, just a short walk away from the bustling city center and key attractions. The dining experience, while lovely, could have offered more breakfast options, especially for early departures. Overall, it was a great value for a short break in this charming city.
