Very good value for a great hotel. Definitely one of the best Leonardo hotels I've stayed in. The surroundings are really beautiful - a park with a lake and easy walk to the tram into the city centre. Highly recommended.

Great but extra expense was not planned

Excellent stay although am annoyed that you pay extra for another bed when you have declared that there are three of you one is a child and several hotels on this trip have assumed that a 12 year old will share the bed with the adults ..it looks like future trips I will have to book 3 adults ... This was not the case with all hotels . But when booking on a comparison site is a hit bad when on a budget then you find you have to pay extra!! An expense not taken into consideration when booking ..

I feel that this property is not worth the price I paid for. No breakfast or fitness center. Breakfast price is 23 Euro per person. Most of all I did not like the way receptionist treated us; no smile and it seemed like he was not happy about our stay with them and answered my questions in an unpleasant manner. They also had some issues with cleanliness. Location of the hotel is in a great place which gives you a lot of options. An emergency door to our hallway was not secured and people kept slamming the door which was very annoying and its stairs was nasty. Their lobby was not well decorated or suitable to spend some quality time.
