The breakfast was excellent with a wide variety of food. Location wise, it was within walking distance from all the venues we wanted to visit but also away from the more crowded parts of the city. The rooms and beds were comfortable. Overall the hotel was well maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful. At one point we asked for a restaurant recommendation and the two restaurants the staff gave us were close and very good.

James United States of America

Lovely big room with high ceiling and understated elegance type decor. Fabulous breakfast including croissants that beat anything I’ve had in France recently.

Mariusz Switzerland

the location is perfect, less than 5 mins walk to the Centre of the city and no more than 10 minutes from the Old Town and Museums. it’s an old hotel that has been modernized, so a nice blend of old and new. the breakfast is fantastic and the staff extremely helpful.

Danielle Israel

The Sparrow Hotel was perfection! The gorgeous pre-war building means beautiful french doors and casement windows in your room, an antique wire elevator (safe!) and the decor was in the best taste. The buffet breakfast that was included was outstanding, pain au choclat, macaron, eggs, smoked salmon, fresh fruit, oatmeal, yogurt, fresh squeezed fruit and vegetable juices all beautifully prepared and presented. The location was perfect for us, right next to a beautiful park - which our kids made great use of- on the edge of a long shopping area and walking distance to many museums.
