The restaurants nearby were excellent. The hotel is on a pedestrian only street. Difficult to get to as it requires a 10 minute walk with suitcases bouncing on a cobblestone street.

The property wasn’t quiet as we could hear partying and music well into the early morning hours, but the room was beautiful and the sauna was a plus! Also the hotel staff were very friendly and the complimentary champagne was lovely.

The hotel was great. The room was spacious and located on one of the main shopping streets, so there were many restaurant options nearby as well. The lady at the reception (forgot to ask for her name!) was the highlight of the stay. Her customer service was fantastic. I would definitely recommend and stay here again.
