Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is a gem in the town center, close to everything. The rooms are spacious and modern, offering great comfort. The friendly staff goes above and beyond to make your stay special. However, the dining options are limited, and Wi-Fi is not included in the price.
The hotel is in a fantastic location, just in the quiet city centre and near shops. The rooms are spacious and modern, providing a great value for money. The service is top-notch with friendly staff. However, the dining experience falls short with limited menu choices. The facilities are well-equipped but lack a bit in variety.
The hotel is a gem, very near the castle, and everything is excellent except for the need to change rooms. The rooms are spacious and modern, creating a comfortable stay, but there is a consideration regarding the value for money. The service is exceptional, particularly the housekeeping, with some pet amenities available. The location is superb, close to the town center and very convenient for exploring. Dining offers juicy burgers that guests will adore. The facilities are luxurious, offering a truly top-notch experience.
