  : Very practical and quiet superior room with some of the most comfortable hotel beds I have ever slept on! Beautiful hotel in general! Fantastic location, plenty of outlets for charging devices, massive wardrobe
  : Very old building with very old ventilation. Funky smells and stained carpets everywhere! Mold in the bathroom and stains on the pillows! Superior room was as basic as they come! I wander what was it superior too mold even at the breakfast buffet. And last but not least we booked and paid for tween room but the hotel confirmed double room for the same price and charged use extra for the kids bed. Customer service upon arrival MEH! , but the customer service upon check out was great! She was professional.

  : Wonderful hotel with old-time-glamour in construction. Beautiful dining room and all the public areas.
  : No air conditioning in the rooms!

  : The outside building and entrance look stunning. Old building with lots of old elements and nice athmosphere. The receptionist was really kind and helpful. The big stairs give a very 'roaring twenties' & stylish feel to it all. Rooms itself are located in a regular bit old fashioned late eighties, early nineties part of the building so the contrast is quite big
  : The hotel is definitely not made for summertime. Rooms were crazy hot! REALLY crazy hot! We didn't find any airco, so we opened the windows to let at least some fresh air in (to not end up with a splitting headache from lack of oxygen next day), but the hotel is located in the centre so there was quite alot of trafic just beside and around the room all night, also from trucks and busses. Curtains are just basic and didn't keep the light out at all which is not really convenient when the sun is shining 24 hours a day. and it were sunny days so the combination of it all was just terrible (sorry, but that's how it felt) So basically, sleep was optional. We only stayed 1 night so no big issue, we managed. But when staying longer I would have become quite grumpy without any sleep, so I would really suggest to work on some solutions for guest staying during summertime!

  : Breakfast was good
  : The rooms on the southern side of 2nd floor were extremely hot. The window opened to the hotel bar so had to close the window when going to sleep, could not sleep because of the heat. The northern side rooms were cool and comfortable (a relative stayed there)

  : The hotel was beautiful! We stayed in the new part which wasnt as beautiful, but they had made it surprisingly cohesive with the old part. The room was spacious and clean. The front desk clerk was extremely polite and helpful and the breakfast was excellent.
  : Some parts were a little outdated, such as the shower. Although it was clean and working, it felt a little bit dingy compared to the upscale feeling of the rest of the hotel.

  : Nice old but up to date hotel full of history. Good breakfast. Good location and parking.
  : Hot in room as no AC or active air system. Window had to be closed as room on ground level. Breakfast hall very dark, could have managed more ligt from windows.

  : Confortable room. Great breakfast.
  : I wasn't told the main restaurant was closed until I went to order food. The bar menu is very limited. What I had was good.
