We really loved this spot! It was the perfect little staycation for us and the fact that you can get a 5 star meal just downstairs made it a 10/10 experience. Clean, comfy rooms. Staff was so kind and welcoming! We will definitely be back ❤️
Our stay Hotel Vela was great. The check-in process was so easy and straightforward. Beautifully decorated lobby and rooms. Very comfortable and had everything we needed. Centrally located too. Will definitely be staying here again.
Absolutely loved our stay! The hotel is incredibly swanky—the perfect luxurious escape. Beyond the gorgeous decor, the staff were wonderful and genuinely friendly, making our time here truly enjoyable. Highly recommend!
Very comfortable! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant was a bit loud for our taste, however there were several other dining options available within walking distance. We chose this hotel for its uniqueness and convenient proximity to the train station. We would certainly stay here again.
Incredible experience. The hotel is absolutely perfect and you can tell they put a lot of thought into the guest experience. The hotel bar is top tier and has a super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area looking for a great play unwind!
Hip and modern with a cool vibe and very friendly and accommodating staff. Don't miss out on Siren Social Club while staying there or in general...FANTASTIC!
