If you are fascinated by an historic hotel and spend a lot of time in the public places you might enjoy this hotel. If not, there are better options. The hotel is close to downtown but it is up quite a steep hill. The bathroom is advertised as large but more than half is a huge soaking tub with high sides that makes taking a shower dicey. Breakfast is served from 7 to 10 but if you don’t get there by 8:45, you will not get the full selection which isn’t very big to start with. They make a limited number of croissants and when you ask about having one at 9 AM, they say it would take 20 minutes. Before 8:45 or thereabouts, there are three types of bread. After that only one remains. This pattern continued for the three days we stayed there.

It was an interesting historic hotel with great views. The lift is one of the highlights to my husband. We both like the dinner served by its restaurant. If they can enhance the variety of breakfast, it would be great. I have to say their bread is excellent.

This hotel is a historic one since 1800s, the lounge has a relaxing feeling, and staffs are friendly. Rooms are clean and quiet, but a bit dated. Beds are comfortable. Views are fantastic. Would love to stay longer. Their free breakfast is also great.

Wonderful hotel but be knowledgeable

The hotel location is amazing! The views from the window are breathtaking. However, the trek/hike to the hotel is a workout! Be aware if you have too much luggage, the hotel does offer pickup service from the train station. Also, I didn’t like the bathroom tap running on separate faucets. It was too hot or too cold and hard to get the right temperature to wash face early in the morning. The tub is also very high to step into, could be a major issue for the elderly as there is great risk of slipping.
