Attractive well appointed hotel. Friendly staff. Everything suited our needs. Modern bathrooms. The only meal available was breakfast but that was available until 12.00. Close to city centre and major tourist attractions. I highly recommend it.

I rarely write reviews, but our experience at this hotel was so appalling that I feel compelled to share it. We booked a Deluxe Room at this hotel, the only option available at the time. We were traveling with a small child, which has never been an issue at any other hotel we’ve stayed at (and we travel frequently). However, upon arrival, our nightmare began, we were humiliated by the receptionist and manager, who aggressively claimed we couldn’t stay with a child in the room. We offered to share one bed, pay extra, or add an extra bed, but the manager refused, even saying our child "can stay on the street." After a long and humiliating ordeal, during which our child was in tears, we were allowed to stay for one night but were told we’d be kicked out the next morning with no refund. The manager followed through, forcing us to book another hotel at our expense and insisting the room was non-refundable—even though we didn’t cancel the booking, he did. How would that even apply? Attempts to resolve this were met with threats to call the police. The treatment we received was inhumane and utterly unprofessional. I cannot understand why the manager behaved this way or why he felt the need to ruin our holiday. The hotel’s behaviour was unprofessional, inhumane, and unacceptable. Avoid this place at all costs.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The Hotel was in an excellent position for the Christmas Markets. The hotel has two lifts but some rooms still required access via about 10 steps so if this is important you might want to let the hotel know you need a room with step free access. The breakfast was self service buffet and very good with a wide range of options.
