The service, the accomodation, the staff, the restaurants :breakfast and the "à la carte-menu"

Philippe Belgium

From the late night warm welcome with a smile, to the hearty breakfast options, and a perfect location for easy train access as well as a run/stroll to the sea. The website gives you the look and feel, but the service expressed the real quality of the hotel. Thank you for a lovely stay, for the care shown in the room design, and for how you treat your guests.

good location, cozy, super view, personal is friendly, breakfast good

Mariia Belgium

This is a decent hotel opposite the railway station. The staff is simply wonderful, very welcoming and attentive. My room was simple and rather small, yet quite comfortable. Nothing to complain about for one night. Very good breakfast (as I had to leave very early, I asked for breakfast at 6 a.m. even though the service starts at 8 a.m. and I was offered a full breakfast :=) A nice bar open till late and a restaurant are just downstairs.

Andrzej Belgium
