Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The facilities are very nice and most staff are extremely helpful. Rooms are well kept. I enjoyed my stay. The rooftop is very nice but the pool is not for swimming and is unheated. If you are looking for a pool to get your laps in then you will be unhappy. But if you just need to chill and soak, it is perfect and often there is a self-srrve sparkling wine bottle on deck. The gym and sauna facilities are noce. You have long (15-20) min walks to old town or Gros but minutes from a nice river walk and the bridges. Parking is limited so call try to book early and call the night before. If parking is full, there is a parking lot around the corner that you can book with the Telpark app and the staff can help you with that. The parking lot is a two minute walk but a 10 to 15 min drive in traffic.

Checkin was a little slow, too many arrivals and not enough staff. Gym is great, but towels are missing as is cleaning spray. Room was very good - big and well appointed. Roof top pool and loungers could have been better - messy and a bit chaotic. Overall a very good place, and within 20minutes walk of all major interest spots.

Great hotel with a spa
What a great hotel, and super value. The staff could not have been friendlier, and all had excellent English. We really enjoyed the spa facilities; they were a fabulous way to relax. The rooms were clean and intriguingly arranged; ours had a quasi-separate showering and dressing area, which we enjoyed. The hotel is right next to the lively Plaza Easo with its eateries and cultural events, and about a 10-minute walk from the Cathedral. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Great stay!
Great hotel. I only have 2 complaints. The pillows are horrible. PLEASE replace them. Also, I find it weird that you have to make reservations for the indoor whirlpool. It wasn't difficult to get one, but it's strange.

Hotel is fairly new. Had issues with cold water, that issue was resolved. The hotel called a cab and within minutes they arrived. On arrival the we received an upgraded room to help accommodate our luggage.(Sweet) On the morning of our departure the front desk made a breakfast bag for us to take on our early flight!!!!! Very awesome experience!!!!

We had a lovely time at this hotel, overall standards were excellent and the staff were lovely and v helpful. Breakfast buffet was also fantastic. Only downside was the first room we stayed in had really smelly drains so bad we had to move room. We moved to an even nicer room and the staff were helpful but it would have been better not to have happened at all.

The room was beautiful and spacious enough. The location is pretty good-everything is very walkable. Our biggest complaint is that the Hotels.com listing had a bar as a property detail, on the property did not have a bar. We would have chosen another hotel.
