The hotel is very good location. One is right by the cathedral -centrally located in the historic old town. All friends sights and famous shopping streets are in the direct vicinity. From the main station or bus station you need 3 minutes on foot. So no taxi needed.
The staff at reception was very friendly and helpful and during the check in and check out there were no problems. The rooms were clean, but a bit small, and the interior fittings could be changed. The breakfast room was not very big and the tables stood very closely together, in... Read more

Very recommendable-but you should not book directly-the hotel we have for three nights including breakfast (room with road view-this may be something but not really) 870-Euro paid. Here at holidaycheck would have the right at TUI about 500 euros!
Also the car service costs 35 Euro per day. Man with the own car to the hotel-the hotel park the car somewhere in a garage. If you need the car again it is in ten minutes available.

We were a group of eight people, aged between 24 and 56 years. We had booked four room. A double room was on the second floor and had no windows. When we complained, we were given a day later without any extra charge a room on the fourth floor, which was very good. It is recommended a room request at the time of booking affixed to at least three floor, even better in the fourth. Our room was to the backyard, it was on the street so very quiet, only about the food you could hear the fan, was quite loud. With closed window was absolutely no pr... Read more

The only thing I found strange is that the hotel required the room key to be inserted into a special thing in the wall so that power and water would work in the room - without the key card in this device, nothing in the room worked.
