The property was in good conditions, they have a nice and gentle piano bar player every evening that adds charm to the place. The facilities were ok, would deserve some light maintenance or redesign, but overall they are usable and enjoyable and that's all that matters. The location is ok, right on the lively Jewish quarter, and walking distance to many "ruin bars" and restaurants, 20-30 minutes walking distance to parliament, museums, opera, libraries and around the corner from the famous New York café.

L’hotel ha una hall meravigliosa e altrettanto bella e fornita è la colazione. Le camere sono essenziali ma dotate di tutto il necessario, anche toileterie. Lo staff è attento e disponibile, tutti sono pronti ad aiutare. Le piscine molto piccoline e non molto calde, anche in Agosto, l’area spa in generale potrebbe essere migliorata. Molto bello il terrazzo. Nel complesso, torneremmo sicuramente in questo bellissimo hotel!

F1 weekend

We liked the hotel , second time back and would choose again for future trips. Excellent central location very close to all transport options. We only had breakfast which was nice, plenty of choice. One morning waiting time for scrambled egg was more then 10 minutes. Bed was comfortable , pillows were not so great. Shower head in our room need attention. We can recommend this hotel , friendly staff and good location.

Disappointing stay

The photos glorify the hotel. It is far less impressive than pictured. The desk staff was not especially friendly and the room was small and minimalist with a rather depressing, cold palette of black and grey. Breakfast consisted of an array of food options, the majority being unappetizing (cauliflower Polonaise, really!). I did appreciate spending time at the rooftop pool area.

It was a very comfortable stay in a perfect location, so many great brunch places and restaurants nearby in the Jewish quarter. The air conditioner was a little noisy, but after a day of wandering around the city I was too exhausted to find it distracting.

Funtional and decenty hotel lacking in charm.

The room was very small but quiet as it faced an internal courtyard. Pretty convenient location BUT the streets nearby are a bit depressing. No late checkout. I asked for an hour extension but dismissed even though there was no sign of cleaning on my floor when I left. Decent location, recently decorated but functional rather than charming.
