In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Central location — Guests consistently highlight the hotel's position as a major plus, with easy walking access to palaces, markets, and streams.
  • Spacious, clean rooms — Multiple reviews praise the large, clean rooms, with some guests receiving upgrades and enjoying city views.
  • Helpful staff — The staff are repeatedly described as accommodating, friendly, and willing to go out of their way, from printing boarding passes to tracking down lost luggage.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Facilities score is modest — Guests rate the facilities at 6.4 out of 10, suggesting that while the hotel offers many amenities, some may feel dated or less impressive compared to the rooms and service.
  • Some guests may find it noisy — One review mentions the hotel being dog-friendly, but another notes that the location is central, which could bring street noise in some rooms.
  • Distance from the airport — A review mentions the airport is about 20 km away, which could be a consideration for travellers with early flights.
