The hotel was basic, as the name suggests, but had everything we needed for a short break. I particularly liked the imaginitive use of lighting, it produced a very different atmosphere. Choice of tv channels was poor and entertainment system was not user friendly. No hot water in the sink and no temperature control on the shower |

We thought the rooms were a most unusual design but very comfortable. We liked the free unlimited access to tea, coffee and water. Only 10/15 mins walk from the main tourist areas. We will stay in a Chic and Basic again. |

The lighting in the rooms.. I understand the theme but could have been warmer (less fluro blue) but i realise this is a quetstion of taste. The only other thing was the privacy when having a shower.. no option but to keep the blind down and to control it you have to walk to the far side ie in front of the window. Would be better to have 2 individual blinds on the window |

i love this hotel and i would be very happy to return, the rooms are amazing and defo worth the money, the LED lights made for very interesting nights and kept the patner amused for a while, it does exactly what it says its basic but well thought out (chic) although when you first arrive and come out of the lift you are faced with lots for different colours (LED lights) and its a little shock,but... we were not to keen on the service in the white room, they had one customer and all tables empty we only wanted a drink and he checked his diary ,which had nothing written in it, thought about it for a minute and told us we had 30 mins making out he was going to be fully booked for the night, we laughed it off with a very large jack daniels and a bottle of wine and stayed longer then he wanted,... |

Very stylish room and lounge areas, great, hip location, a real experience Sewers smell, though this was a general problem in the area |

Great location, walking distance from city center and great park around the corner. Very nice rooms, hotel is as amazing in design as shown on the website. Great and smart concept where some (nonsense) services like roomservice are cut down in favour of a do-it-yourself coffee / tea / water corner (with much better coffee than with any room boiler --> Nespresso!). In one word: a great hotel! |
