Napoleon Hotel
Great Hotel. Emanuelle was great

Hotel Quirinale
Very clean room, staff were always friendly, the interior courtyard is peaceful and quiet. There is some noise from the main road that the hotel is on but sirens and vehicle noise doesn’t bother me but something to note for others about room location. Room was spacious and the whole hotel was premium ...
