In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Location that guests consistently rate — The hotel's position in the 07 district earns a 9/10 location score, with reviews highlighting easy access to public transport and a 15-minute walk to the center.
  • Breakfast with plenty of choice — A buffet breakfast is included in the room rate and features international options, fresh fruit, cakes, and local items. Most reviews call it great or excellent, even if one found it just okay.
  • Friendly and helpful staff — Guests frequently note courteous, cooperative service, with specific praise for reception staff and fast check-in.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Rooms may feel small for families — One review notes that rooms are rather small when traveling with a child, suggesting that families might find the space limited.
  • Basement parking is narrow — A guest with a large car had difficulty maneuvering in the hotel's own basement garage, so drivers of bigger vehicles should be prepared for tight spaces.
  • Mixed feedback on breakfast — While most praise the breakfast, a couple of guests found it decent but not special, describing it as a basic continental spread.
