Philip, Jul 2017
Pros (+) A fine hotel with comfortable rooms. The location was perfect. The breakfast was very good for the level of hotel - a good range including local specialities if you want to try. Very helpful and friendly front office staff impressively multilingual.
Cons (-) The atmosphere was a bit close in the room and a supplied fan only helped a bit.

Pros (+) The fourth floor breakfast room serves a very complete offering. Nice touch is that the menu varies slightly day-to-day.

John, Sep 2016
Pros (+) Perfect location near the King's Palace.
Cons (-) Unfortunately, our room was right over a bar with an extremely loud band playing till 2:30 am. If we hadn't had suitcases unpacked, we would have asked to be moved. Very short night of sleep.
