Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is centrally located, a quick walk from the old centre and with easy access to the train station. The rooms offer a mix of relaxation with balconies and luxurious touches like open showers and bathtubs. The service was exceptional; every request was promptly met with a smile. The dining experience showcased delicious Tuscan bread, although with room for a bit more variety. The facilities were well-maintained, providing a comfortable and convenient stay overall while offering good value for money.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room was spacious and had a lovely balcony with a view. The service was impeccable, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The hotel's location was perfect, very close to the city center and easily accessible by tram. The dining experience was delightful with iconic sandwiches. The facilities were modern and well-maintained, providing a truly comfortable experience.
The hotel is in a fantastic spot, close to the train station and away from the noise. The rooms are spacious with a balcony, but the price could be more budget-friendly. The breakfast was delicious, but the bar was a bit underwhelming. The facilities were modern and convenient, making my stay enjoyable overall.
The hotel offers a mix of comfortable rooms with balconies and open showers, but some may find the prices slightly high. The service is attentive with a variety of amenities available. Its central location is convenient, although not exactly in the city center. The dining experience, especially for vegan options, could be better. The facilities meet basic needs but lack some modern touches.
