Splendid new hotel built into old caves. Great location, friendly staff. Parking, while expensive, could not be better. One goes to a garage in the new part of the city, and immediately taken in a beautiful van directly to the hotel. Prohibited to use a car in town.
Room was extremely comfortable (bed, temperature control) but with some caveats: marble everywhere with multiple steps up to bathroom, and it gets slippery when wet. Huge cave closet room to hang clothes, but it is open to the rest of the room, so you are always looking at your stuff. Great shower with a variety of sprays. One feature now common in “hip” hotels, which old guy like me will never understand, is a clear glass panel between shower and den area of room. So, not only can you see your partner in the shower, but sitting on the throne as well; that’s just crazy.
I don’t understand why architect of this brand new hotel would specify old style skeleton key locks; what a pain in the ass. You need to turn key multiple times to lock and unlock, both outside and inside the room. You don’t get two keys so more inconvenience. Just issue card “keys” and make life easier for everyone.
Breakfast was very good and greatly appreciate that we were offered the opportunity to order omelets and the like. I so appreciated ordering a Coke Zero at breakfast without any additional charge, unlike many hotels. Also, two free bottled water in the room fridge per night. Nice touch.
