Our stay was good with 2 exceptions, the tram noise - of which earplugs are supplied and the room had a smell, which might be because thr windows are mostly shut to prevent noise.

Ett medelklasshotell som ligger nära stadskärnan ganska gammalt och slitet, frukosten ok men inte över sig. Helt klart ligger priset för högt på detta hotell.

Toppengod frukost och trevligt rum med väldigt fräscht badrum. Bra läge med nära till sevärdheter och staden. En hel del ljud från gatan och då det var varmt behövde vi ha fönstret öppet. Det fanns dock öronproppar.

Der Empfang im Hotel war schon einzigartig. Kaum hatte man gemerkt das mein Mann bewegungseingeschränkt ist wurde das gesamte Gepäck ins Zimmer gebracht. Alle Bitten und Fragen wurden sofort erledigt und beantwortet. Es blieben keine Wünsche offen. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut, reichhaltig und abwechslungsreich. Im Restaurant haben wir sehr gut gegessen und auch hier wurde unsere Bitte um mundgerechtes Anrichten entsprochen. Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt

När det ligger öronproppar på sängen blir man lite fundersam. Utan luftkonditionering var föbstren tvungna att vara äppna vilket medförse väldigt mycket ljud från spårvagnsr utanför. I övrigt rtt bra hotell.

Återbesök

Vi bodde här oktober 2019 och har velat åka tillbaka, men pandemin kom i vägen. Men efter 4 sprutor och hopp om fint väder kom vi iväg. Hotellet ligger bra och om man inte tycker om ljudet av spårvagnar önska in nåt gården eller använd öronpropparna som hotellet tillhandahåller. Ljusa rum och lagom frukost som varieras för varje dag. Trevlig glad personal.

God seng!

Da receptionen ikke er bemandet hele tiden, var hotellet flink at spørge hvornår vi kom, så der var nogen. Rummet var fint med en rigtig god seng og dyne, samt badeværelse med god bruser og dejlig varmt vand. Den unge mand der servicerede ved morgenmaden var yderst venlig og serviceminded. Alt i alt en god oplevelse!

Abgesehen von netten Personal und einem leckeren Frühstück war es leider eine sehr negative Erfahrung. Das Hotel liegt an einer stark befahrenen Straße mit Straßenbahn unmittelbar vor der Tür, welche die ganze Nacht hindurch fährt, ab 5 Uhr früh ca. alle 10 Minuten. Man bekommt kein Auge zu! Im Verhältnis dazu sind die Preise zudem noch völlig überhöht. Den Vogel schießt allerdings das Restaurant ab. 11 Euro für den Liter Bier ist teurer als auf den Münchener Wiesn und für ca. 150 Gramm Salat rund 15 Euro zunehmen, ist eine absolute Frechheit. Hier wird man selbst für viel Geld nicht satt.
