10/10 Exceptional

Very spacious room - although I think it was big as it was for someone with limited mobility. Loved the pool on the roof - great views! and all the sunbeds had cushions which was great. A little bit airless in the bathroom, but very grateful for the air conditioning in the room! We didn't eat in the restaurant as we were on a very tight budget (only there due to flight delay) but the menus looked really nice and had we been staying longer and on our terms, we would have. Reception staff very happy and friendly and helpful.

We got a stunning room (an upgrade I guess, as we were celebrating a special occasion). All the rooms seemed to have lovely balconies. The room itself was spacious, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was great and the dining courtyard was so lovely and peaceful. The rooftop pool was a great place to relax after busy hiking days. The people at the hotel (we saw Claudia at the main desk the most) were warm and very helpful. The location was excellent and they have parking right next door. My only suggestion would be that they should replace the glass/ clear plastic barrier on the rooftop to make the pool area feel nicer. It’s got a great view but somewhat obstructed by this foggy clear barrier. Overall we loved this hotel and would stay here again

Excellent smallish and stylish hotel, boutique like but not pretentious. Very Helpful, friendly staff. Quiet street but 2 min walk into tourist spots. Rooms were good, gym is a bit tired, downstairs swimming is small but the spa, sauna and rooftop pool and sun area are really great. Excellent Fine dining in restaurant with very good breakfast. Would definitely return.

Staff were excellent esp Julia. Pleasant, friendly and helpful. Evening meal at the restaurant was absolutely delicious. Breakfast is good quality. Good selection though repetitive over the few days we stayed. Indoor pool (basement) and outdoor pool (roof). Spa & sauna though I didn’t get to use. I would definitely recommend this hotel. Do note that no iron in the room even on request. There is charge to get ironing done. Also the airport shuttle is not complimentary 40 EUR charge. They don’t offer half board - bed & breakfast.
