This hotel was excellent. Not far from the train station so easy to walk to. The hotel is close to the cathedral which was very convenient for walking. There is a square outside which was great for dinner. I would highly recommend the buffet breakfast. There was plenty of choice. The staff was very nice and helpful.

Had a great stay at this hotel which has a prime location right on the square in the Old town. Hotel was very clean throughout with really friendly and helpful staff. Room was nice facing on to the square which could be noisy with the windows open (others have mentioned this) but didn't really affect me as quite deaf anyway so would opt for the same room. Great choice for the continental breakfast with lots of fresh food and fruit. Overall had a great stay and will definitly stay here again.

This was a wonderful hotel. Great location, spacious rooms, modern amenities. The only strange thing is that as of late March 2026, the images of the outside of the building used on the website don't match the updated exterior of the facility. I got confused trying to find the hotel.

Pros - location was excellent. Breakfast and coffee were wonderful! Room was large and the decor was pretty. Cons - the pillows weren’t the best. Also, it’s noisy from the bars below until well after 2am on a Sunday night. Of course, this isn’t the hotel’s fault, but wanted to mention it for light sleepers.
