Excellent service and extremely clean, spacious rooms. Staff were so welcoming, helpful and kind! The breakfasts were delicious. The hotel is situated at a quiet place next to the river, that is an easy and quick stroll into the main hub of town. Be mindful of the electronic gate when it opens inward so you don’t have to quickly reverse your car as you leave the hotel.

The staff were all amazing. The only thing I'd say negatively is that the hotel is listed as a 5 star, and while the staff, restaurant and common area felt 5 star, our room did not. There wasn't anything actually wrong with the room, it just didn't feel very high end.

Our stay in Ness Walk Hotel

Ness Walk Hotel is amazing! Although the location is a bit far for walking with suitcases from city center, it is definitely worth it as you pass through the calming and uh so beautiful river Ness. The stuff is very pleasant, however not always attentive to details: Upon our arrival we were kindly suggested to wait at the lobby till our room was ready and been offered a glass of champagne. We stated we are not drinking alcohol and immediately were suggested an elder water instead, but to get it in champagne glasses. We had gladly accepted the offer only to recieve an alcoholic beverage regardless stating we are not consuming alcohol... As we pointed out to their mistake, they had ask for forgivness and brought as the right drink in the second attempt. Almost the same mishap happened in the morning during breakfast as well, which was plain annoying. But if we disregard the human mistakes, the hotel itself is beautifully designed, is very clean and located in a sweet spot just outside river Ness walkway which is lovely!
