“Nice place”

Things which I think could be improved: - breakfast: more vegetables, probably less meat:) - windows with two panes (now it's not energy-efficient) - card-key (just an idea, not really a problem)

“A Gem in New Town”

We stayed for two nights and had a wonderful time. The room was clean and spacious and the staff were very friendly and offered great suggestions for activities in the area. Breakfast was nice and the hotel was located on a more quiet street, while still being near the more lively parts of New Town and it was an easy walk to Old Town. Would stay there again!

“Great spot but starting to look a little tired.”

Great location and room. Some of the public areas look a little tired but overall a good hotel.

“Good value - nearly very good!”

Room was nicely-decorated, a good-size and well-furnished but not always well finished off. Bedside lights worked but weren't connected to the wall switches; shower cable was at a stretch - all small but unnecessary irritants, which would require little effort to sort out! Room staff were very visible - in the morning there were piles of sheets and towels everywhere! Breakfast was excellent.Location is very good. Price was reasonable. Would probably stay again!
