Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a superb location, right on the river with a sun terrace, offering a great setting. The rooms come with breakfast and all the amenities, plus a lovely balcony, making for a delightful stay. On the downside, the dining options may be limited. Overall, it's a comfortable and friendly place for a good value.
My stay at the hotel was delightful! The room with a double-head shower over the bath and a balcony had a stunning view. The service was top-notch, with great attention to detail, including a refreshing welcome drink. The location, right on the river, was simply brilliant for a peaceful retreat. While the dining options, with a focus on vegetarian and vegan dishes, were satisfying, there were some minor downsides. Overall, a great value for the money!
The hotel offers stunning views from the room with a large balcony, but the service could be more attentive. The location is fantastic, right by the park and the river, with easy access to the city. The dining options are limited, and the facilities are basic but clean.
