The staff was great, friendly and professional. The room was ok, but. I reserved a room with a kitchen and it did not have a refrigerator. That makes the kitchen almost useless. The restaurants bery good, but it was often closed. The few time I was able to eat there it was very good.

Great location

Fabulous location in the historic centro. Unfortunately, very noisy with street noise late into the night. Our room smelled a bit, though it was very clean. Staff very helpful and good service. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast in the rooftop restaurant very good, though it was pretty mych the same every day. Overall a good stay in a superb location.

Hotel Vaway is perfectly located adjacent to the historic town square and cathedral. Rooms are great, staff is excellent, rooftop restaurant has fabulous views! Since it is located in a busy area, there can be considerable street noise. But the location is very safe and convenient to everything.

This is a beautiful boutique hotel with a rooftop restaurant that has AMAZING views of the city. The staff is super courteous and helpful in both the hotel and the restaurant. The location is central with tons of restaurants, cafes, shops, markets, parks within walking distance. The hotel is across the street from one of the city's National Cathedrals, so expect to hear the church bells from time to time. It was a beautiful experience.

Nice, clean, look like newer beds. Nice linen on beds. Small spaces. We are senior citizens there is a nice view on 7th floor where elevator stops. If you want to go up from there a set of stairs

Not worth the price. This hotel doesn't provide all the main necessities you need at a hotel. The phone line didnt work. Loud noises in the morning that kept waking me up. The pictures provide online is misleading, I was expecting a room with a view and I didn't get that. I was very disappointed staying at this hotel.
