Wonderful comfort and amenities, high quality breakfast, friendly staff, ideal location, convenient transport benefit included. Can't say enough, best value in old town at the moment!

Well located hotel. The room was however too noisy because of people in the street, and old windows in the room that was on the 2nd floor

they gave me an upgrade, so I had a room to the river, wonderful!

perfect location, nice place located at the river and tram station next to hotel !

We had an issue with my room and the team at the Hotel worked hard to resolve. So I was pleased with their responsiveness and diligence.

The location is excellent. Short walk to everywhere. Tram stop only minutes walk away.

The location of the hotel was great and convenient to the conference center where I attended a meeting. Breakfast was excellent with great service. Room was well appointed and enjoyed the free mini bar water and juice!

Location outstanding with view of the river and streetcar stops right across the street. Breakfast buffet enjoyable. Restaurant meals well above average with friendly service personnel.

Good reception. Recommend parking at the hotel for access to your car. Perfect location on the Rhein right at the bridge to Old Town. Quiet for the hustle and bustle of the city. Good breakfast. Generous amenities.
