Lovely newly refurbished hotel. We booked a junior suite with breakfast. Our room (110) was situated on a corner with windows overlooking the Central Market Hall on one side and views over the square to Liberty Bridge from the other. The decor is beautiful, the bed very comfortable and the bathroom is spacious and well appointed. My only negative about the room is there are no drawers, cupboards etc, so when you unpack everything is on display. It’s just a personal preference for me as I like the room to look tidy. Breakfast is on level -1 and there is lots of choice of continental options and a few hot dishes, the scrambled eggs were especially good. The room was never very busy when we ate, usually around 9am. We felt the hotel was in an excellent location with a number of restaurants in very short walking distance. We had a late flight home and the hotel was able to store our luggage until late afternoon for us. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Das Hotel war einfach toll. Das Zimmer groß, hell,und absolut sauber. Es wurden jeden Tag zwei Liter Wasser im Kühlschrank in schönen Glasflaschen kostenlos neu aufgefüllt! Frühstück war alles vorhanden was man braucht. Da Personal super nett und jederzeit hilfsbereit. Das Hotel liegt sehr zentral. Man kann alles zu Fuß gut erreichen oder mit der Straßenbahn . Die Haltestelle liegt direkt vor der Unterkunft. Ich würde es auf jeden Fall wieder buchen.
