Das Hotel ist überall sehr sauber und auch die Sauna und der Pool sind ordentlich. Jedoch ist das Hotel auf der einen Seite recht modern (z.B. Zimmer sind frisch Renoviert) aber auf der anderen etwas altmodisch und der Pool und Sauna Bereich könnte eine Renovierung vertragen. Das Frühstück ist international aufgestellt, jedoch besteht nicht sonderlich viel Auswahl (Eine Käsesorte, eine Sorte Schinken und eine Sorte Salami). Die Kaffeemaschinen haben nur Filterkaffee und Espresso und andere Kaffeesorten können zwar bestellt werden, aber nur gegen Aufpreis. Was mir bei der Buchung nicht bewusst war, ist dass der Roomservice nur alle 3 Tage stattfindet. Das finde ich zu lange und vor allem wenn man das Fitnessstudio und den Pool nutzt, will ich nicht 3 Tage lang das selbe Handtuch benutzen.

This hotel was really great. The location was central and the pool and sauna were great. Hotel is slightly dated but that sort of gave it charm. The hotel doesn't really have a bar open past 9pm so that was a bit of a bummer when looking for a night cap post dinner. Overall, we were very happy and it was a great hotel to end our trip with.

A great location - close to the train station, and many museums, restaurants, etc. within walking distance. The breakfast buffet was varied and substantial. The hotel sauna and pool were very nice. Only quibble re: the use of the sauna. They request going totally nude, but if one wants to have a dip in the pool to cool off, what is wrong with wearing a swim suit inside?

Hotel is lovely and great location. Room was very warm at night and pillows not comfy. No housekeeping service for the 3 nights we were there which was disappointing and we had to ask for fresh towels. Very limited opening times for swimming pool and water was too cold

Great hotel in a superb location. Surrounded by popular attractions, shopping malls, restaurants and near main train station. Standard room is a little small. Lobby could add a weighing scale for luggage. Pool lock is not on time. We stayed 3 nights and were fed same boring breakfast everyday. More cleaning staff needed instead of discouraging guests to clean their rooms. Overall a worthy stay.
