10/10 Excellent

I booked this hotel having stayed in another location previously and the service and standards remain high. Very clean and comfortable room, with a nice sized bathroom and shower. Great central location close to the main train station and trams/buses to other areas. Walkable to the river too, and with great food and drink locations around. Highly recommend.

William, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Loved the area, close to everything. As well as coffee in the room. There was also a free coffee machine and lemon water to drink in the lobby. A microwave was available in the lobby too. The room was a little tight as far as size goes. It was difficult for both of us to open our suitcases at the same time. Other than that it was clean. I would recommend it to anyone.

10/10 Excellent

The location of this hotel is great, right next to a tram stop. Snug quarters but it does the job.
Susan, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

During Eurovision so outside was noisy, crowded and probably not as clean as usual. But big police presence and didn’t see many problems considering number of people. Good job! And a beautiful, charming city. I’d love to return when it’s quieter.
