    comfortable room
    great amenities
    outdated hairdryer

    My family recently had a lovely stay for 2 nights, enjoyed relaxing in the sauna and steam room after a day of exploring. The room was comfortable and cozy, but the hairdryer was a bit outdated and could use an upgrade. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd recommend trying the breakfast buffet—just wish the coffee was better! ☕

    comfort room

    Highly recommend it for families looking for comfort

    Breakfast was so good, had a variety that really filled me up and the staff were quick to refill everything. The room was large enough to move around with ease and the decor, though a bit dated, felt cozy.

    It was a bit pricey but worth it overall.

    street noise

    spacious room but a bit noisy at night

    The junior suite we stayed in was incredibly spacious, allowing us to relax even while feeling unwell. The staff provided excellent service, accommodating our requests with efficiency and friendliness.

    Despite the great room, noise from the street made it hard to sleep at times.

    freshness issue
    amenities gap

    The Spa provided an excellent place to unwind, with thick towels and a comfortable atmosphere. I found the staff incredibly polite and accommodating, even going out of their way to assist with a TV issue. However, the room furnishings felt slightly dated, and the breakfast spread could be improved by ensuring fresh cheese. Overall, a lovely stay with great service.
