Claire from United Kingdom (9/10)
Beautiful hotel in an excellent location – right beside the castle and only ten mins walk to the Old Town Square. Quiet area – a pedestrianized street so no noise at all. The staff could not have been more helpful or welcoming. The breakfast was delicious and copious. The bedroom was spotless, beautifully furnished and comfortable. I honestly can't say enough about this lovely hotel. I will definitely be back.

Sarah from United Kingdom (9/10)
Great hotel in a central location but just off the main streets so really peaceful. Rooms are quirky as it’s an old building and the basement pool and sauna are perfect after a long day. Staff were lovely and helpful. Rooms super clean and well equipped. Breakfasts good quality and generous. Perfect for couples. Would happily stay here again.

A gracious, beautiful hotel located on a picturesque Street near the Castle. Staff were friendly and helpful. Our room was huge and stunning, with the most comfortable bed and pillows of our entire trip. The sauna was lovely and we used it every day to warm up from the Christmas markets.
