Great views from the room. Very nice breakfast with fresh orange juice and good coffee.

Marco Japan

What is not to like. Spend the night in an old water tower. The views are amazing. Very quiet and the whole place is aw

Owen United States of America

A very comfortable room and bed, very clean bathroom etc. The view from the top floor was interesting and far-reaching. Breakfast was also excellent. Nice walks around the surrounding streets after dinner,

Tims United Kingdom

The staff made this a wonderful place to stay. All of the staff we encountered were just the best. For example, we brought our 6-year old (a very picky eater), and they were so accommodating in helping us find something for him to eat. The hotel is also very clean.

Airon Germany

Fantastic room (8th floor) with an amazing view of the countryside! Cosy garden terrace with a unique dinner menu of products from nearby farms.

William Netherlands

Interesting lunch/dinner menu we’ll worth trying.

Jeremy United Kingdom
