I had a wonderful stay at this hotel located in the heart of the walled old town, close to the market plaza and the Rathaus. The deluxe double room I stayed in offered lovely views down to the square, exuding charm and attention to detail. However, the absence of air conditioning or a ventilator was a minor inconvenience.

The hotel offers surprisingly large, clean, and comfortable rooms in a fashionable modern decor within an old building, with nice views. While the service varied from less efficient to very welcoming, the immediate onsite parking for a small fee was convenient. The location is ideal right in the heart of the old city, although the parking lot being a bit distant from the hotel could be better. The dining experience provided good and filling options, especially the extensive breakfast choices. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor drawbacks.

I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were lovely, clean, and well-decorated, offering a nice view from the windows. However, there was a slight sewage smell in the bathroom which I reported. The service was extremely friendly and helpful overall, with a special touch for my child in the restaurant. The location was wonderful for exploring the town on foot, although parking was a little distance away. The dining experience was excellent with a wide selection, but the front facade was under renovation during my visit.
