I stayed here around Christmas time. The Christmas market is right outside the hotel! I couldn’t have picked a better location. Close to the Cathedral and train station. Walking distance to main attractions. Staff were nice and helpful. The cafe at the main lobby was nice as well, breakfast was great. I highly recommend.

Lovely hotel with a nice room and bathroom. Delicious hearty breakfast with many options. The location was steps away from a wonderful Christmas market which was the reason for our visit. Also a short walking distance to the cathedral and other sites.

Great place to stay especially during the Christmas season. The place is extremely walkable to multiple markets. There was a train that could take you to other markets, that were further away, right outside the front door to the hotel.
