Really great location! Water pool was amazing! Breakfast is delicious. All city sights are so close to the hotel location thus we were able to walk around around almost all of them! Also we have gotten discount for the underground parking and the price was almost 14.5 instead of 40 euro per day

    The lobby and decor were beautiful on arrival and set the scene for a luxury stay.The rooms could do with an extra touch of interior design to match the rest of the hotel. The food was beautiful and the terrace was the star of the show.

    Exceptional hotel, the interior design was absolutely stunning! The staff are super friendly and welcoming. The quiet pool and spa were such a treat, with no pre-booking faff to deal with. We had a delicious breakfast overlooking the city on their rooftop bar. We loved our stay and little touches like original artwork on the walls and the record players in the room really made it a stand-out experience.

    This was a great place to stay.There was nothing boring or bland about this guest house. The numerous diverse artworks in common areas were terrific - indeed extraordinary. Staff were excellent, friendly and very helpful. Room was comfortable, bathroom modern and well equipped Free continental breakfast was good idea, simple yet sufficient. Guest lounge was probably the most visually impressive we have ever been in. Compact yet inviting with great designer chairs.

    Service and interior design. Communal areas were exceptional. Hotel was quiet while still busy. Standard room was a little outdated but well kept and bathroom was lovely. Loved the shower, refreshing. The pool was lovely too. The time I went the hydrotherapy section wasn't functioning due to baby swim classes but I'm sure it would have been really nice. Will definitely come back and try out the spa next time!

    Liked the decor, the interior design was on point, felt very expensive. The leisure facilities were very simple but clean. Tried to play the spa vibe but don't be fooled. Simple pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam. We didn't use the gym, but again it looked very expensive. The girl who was working on here was lovely, very chatty and enthusiastic. There was a Dyson hairdryer in the gym changing room and plenty of toiletries you could use should you need.. Beds were comfy, room clean.
