The rooms were very well decorated with a comfortable bed, nice linen and very good fixtures and fittings. Great water pressure at 0600 was nearly bowled over when I tried the shower. Overall I would say excellent place. Only downside was parking the car - very expensive and virtually no parking on the nearby streets. The parking situation was complicated by 2 different times being used. Granted the language barrier probably added to the confusion. I would recommend this place anytime.
This place was lovely - the decoration is great, it is very clean, and I had no trouble finding it.
This is not a tourist district, so you'll like it if you want to feel a sense of local life. The downside of this is that it is not super convenient for the tourist attractions. Although it is directly on a subway stop - the line it is on is not useful (i didn't use it at all) it was better to walk 10 or 15 minutes to other lines. This wasn't an issue really, but good to know. For the price, it is excellent value.
The real reason I give it 4 stars and not 5 is that the wifi lets it down. I had a total wifi blackout on Saturday night for several hours. Thank goodness for Starbucks - there are many around city centre.
I loooved this room. It's how a room would look if I decorated it. Very chic, clean lines, lots of mirrors and a closet with a decent amount of space. The price was very reasonable. There were great restaurants and cafes within walking distance.
The staff was very nice and super helpful.
The location was ok for the price. The train/tube was less than a half a block away. The bus and tram to city center were at the end of the block. However, most tourist attractions were about a 15-20 minute bus ride away. Not terrible by any means but if you like to be in a more tourist friendly area- this isn't it.
Also, the hotel occupies a floor in a commercial building. So the hotel doesn't control the common areas. At night, there are no lights in the hallway/ common area of the building. It's actually pretty creepy trying to make your way in the dark from the main level to the level the hotel is actually located on. I complained about it to the front desk but nothing changed as I am not sure they have the power to change this.
Outside of that, I loved the hotel and would recommend it to those who are a bit more adventurous and are ok living outside of the tourist trap.
Although it was a little difficult to find, this hotel is absolutely stunning and remarkably clean. The staff are welcoming and always make the effort to greet you and are willing to help everytime we entered and exited the hotel. The hotel is currently being renovated so there is no light up the stairs to the hotel but this was not enough for us to be put off considering all the benefits of staying here. Beds are unbelievably comfy and rooms are a nice enough size to enjoy without any complaints. Could not recommend this place enough, stunning!
