    great breakfast

    I had a fantastic stay! The indoor pool was huge, and the city view from my room was fine, even if it was a bit misty. The breakfast had a great selection, and the staff were on top of everything with a smile. Definitely coming back! 😊

    dinner options

    Does it deliver?

    The indoor pool was a delightful retreat, and the breakfast spread was exceptional, featuring delicious options to start the day!

    Somewhat disappointed by the temperature of the sauna, which felt too low during my visit. Also, the dinner options nearby were limited.

    excellent breakfast
    reservation mix-up
    unhelpful bar staff

    Excellent breakfast buffet with diverse dining options.

    Unfortunately, the front desk messed up my reservation, making me pay a higher tariff. I had to spend an hour on the phone with hotels.com, which was incredibly frustrating after a long day of traveling. The bar staff were unhelpful, and their handling of our late-night food request was very disappointing.

    panoramic view
    impressive breakfast
    room size
    poor soundproofing
    disruptive staff

    The views from the room were fantastic, offering a nice panorama of the city. The bar staff served excellent cocktails, adding to the enjoyable atmosphere. However, the room felt cramped, and the lack of soundproofing allowed cleaning staff to disrupt the early morning quiet. Breakfast was impressive, featuring one of the best spreads seen in this category of hotels. Overall, the stay had its high points but lacked some essentials for comfort.

    great location with room for improvement

    The location is excellent, making it easy to explore the area. I truly appreciated the electric car chargers available in the parking. The indoor pool exceeded expectations with its spaciousness and comfort, which allowed for a very enjoyable experience.

    The single AC charger for electric vehicles may be limited during busier times.

    frustrating hair cap policy

    I thoroughly enjoyed my one night stay. the breakfast was delicious with great gluten-free options, and the spa facilities were absolutely marvelous, though the hair cap policy for the pool was a bit frustrating.
