L'hote si trova in pieno centro storico, vicina al parcheggio 6. La struttura è molto bella, la nostra camera spaziosa e pulitissima. La sala delle colazioni è stupenda, una vera chicca, la colazione varia e abbondante. Il personale è di una disponibilità e gentilezza unici, ci hanno lasciato la stanza oltre il check out, per esigenze nostre, visto che avevamo dei bambini. Davvero super consigliato !

Das Hotel hat eine super Lage. Das Frühstück ist gut und auch das Ambiente sehr einladend. Das Zimmer ist gross und sauber. Leider sehr sehr ringhörig. Man hörte alles in der Nacht und es war recht kalt. Für eine Nacht völlig okey mehr eher nicht.

Ein sehr schönes Hotel modern eingerichtet in einer geschichtsträchtigen Stadt. Alles ist Tip-Top und sauber. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut. Es gibt Schinken-Käse und Croissant in verschiedenen Ausführungen. Verschiedene Kuchen. Frische Früchte und Joghurt. Kaffee -Tee -Milch und Säfte. Mehr braucht man wirklich nicht. Personal war an der Rezeption und beim Frühstück Freundlich und aufmerksam. Wir waren vollends zufrieden.

Bra läge i en otroligt fin miljö , med underbar utsikt. Nära till allting , shopping restauranger och sevärdheter. Enda nackdelen är att hotellet har inte egen parkering utan man måste gå en mindre sträcka , men det uppvägdes av det övriga.
