The staff was really friendly and they speak Spanish, they were always there to answer my questions and the location was just amazing, it was a short walk to a bus stop and around 5 minutes walk to the train station!

Isaac Netherlands

Super friendly staff; they were very accommodating to a family travelling with an infant.

Peter United States of America

This place was totally great. I don't understand why it doesn't have a higher rating. The front desk people were all great, and the building is beautiful--while old, it is in excellent condition. I had my own bathroom in my room (even if tiny) and the fixtures were all new and perfect. Extremely convenient location.

Erin Switzerland

Great 24hr Reception - she speaks almost all languages ☺️. Easy check in, great breakfast, and good location close to Bahnhof.

Maria Germany

I enjoyed the old school Victorian style of the hotel. The location was perfect, plenty of options for bars, food etc within walking distance. Lastly, the staff were amazing!

D United States of America

Clean and comfortable room in a very good location, few minutes walk to the central city. Nice staff and good breakfast.

Maha Germany

Location is great. Easy to access the outsiders of old town by free City buses or travels Pass during staying.

Yy Taiwan

This was a very nice hotel close to everything. The Trams stopped right outside for trips anywhere. Close to the train and bus stations. Excellent breakfast.

Colincf United States of America

It’s very close to HBF I just walk only 5 mins to hotel Nice decoration of the building and looks really classic
