I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms facing the Spa area were nice and comfy, but some were small and smelled of the spa with no ventilation options for twin beds. The grand hall for breakfast was lovely.

The hotel is relatively broad and sumptuous with big, designed, clean, tidy, and soundproof double rooms featuring 2 double beds. The separation from the bedroom with a net curtain may pose noise concerns, but overall, the rooms are spacious and well-kept.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms, while clean and comfortable, felt a bit small for the price paid. The service provided was exceptional, going above and beyond to accommodate us.

The hotel is not central but manageable on foot, close to sights, bars, and restaurants. The rooms were just about okay for the price, featuring good beds but with some smelling of the spa, located in the main hall, and with no twin bed options. The service is friendly and professional but has room for improvement. The dining options are limited, with old bread and pastries, while the breakfast buffet offers various choices. The location offers easy access to key sites, and the facilities are well-maintained.

The hotel rooms were decorated really nicely and in pristine condition, exceeding our expectations compared to a 5-star hotel we stayed in Budapest. The service was fantastic with very helpful and welcoming staff, especially at the reception and accommodating our furry friend. The location was a great addition for relaxation, just a 15-minute bus ride to the city center, making it convenient for exploration. The dining experience may have lacked variety but still offered delicious options. Overall, the hotel provided great value for money.
