We had a wonderful experience with the bellman at the hotel. He was very personable, and even gave us chocolates for our anniversary celebration. The room was very clean and we loved the decoration. Overall we had a great experience there.

Great location if you love to be in the middle of things. However, it’s above a very fun bar so if you sleep with the window open it’s very loud and if you close it the room can get a bit stuffy (no ac).

Great location. Food was great. The only complaint would be no ac in hotel and it’s very loud being above the bars/restaurants. Bring your own shower cap, bar soap, shampoo/condition. Would stay again just in a back room not street side.

The location is the best, right down in the historic quarter near Spanish Arch, where the buildings are hundreds of years old. You feel like you are walking the road of history. The staff was so friendly and helpful, so we stayed an extra day. The bed was the best we’ve had this trip, so we caught up on our sleep without taking extra time for it! I would definitely stay here again.

The property is unique as it is right on the main street of the Latin Quarter. Restaurants and pubs are steps from the door. The hotel staff are amazing- kind and thoughtful, ready to help as needed 24/7. They treated our group as treasured family. We love this hotel.

Conveniently located. Close to restaurants, pubs and shopping. Average room. After parking in the incredibly small Spanish arch car park, we opted to park several blocks away in a larger car park.
