Allowed us to check in at 1pm (4 hours early) as our room was ready. Receptionist was very nice. Our stay included a free transport pass which allowed us to use local buses for free over 2 days (for a 1 night stay). Hotel is ideally located across road from railway station.

The staff were friendly and extremely helpful. Breakfast was really good, the hotel restaurant had great choices and the rooms were spacious. The only issue we had was not having a fan, it was too hot! The bus station was so convenient and having the guest card to ride for free during out stay was very convenient.

This was by far one of the best hotels that we stayed The views were absolutely incredible. The walk ability was amazing, the breakfast and dinner restaurant were also really great. It was one of our favorite hotels that we stayed at again. I can’t begin to describe how beautiful the view from all the hotel rooms and the balconies that they had. So close and walkable to everything with a gorgeous river outside would definitely come back and stay again.!

Excellent hotel, spacious room with a great view, immaculately clean. Fantastic breakfast, walkable distance to the train station, local buses and the thermal spa. Only downside- only one lift used by guests and the staff so can get very slow in the morning.
