A boutique hotel situated in an exceptional location, characterized by its immaculate cleanliness and a staff dedicated to ensuring the exceptional comfort and satisfaction of its guests. The receptionist, Danay, deserves our utmost gratitude for providing invaluable recommendations of places to visit and unique restaurants for my wife and me. Consequently, we wholeheartedly recommend this hotel.

The hotel was very good. Room was large and beds were very comfortable, lots of pillows which we love. Rooms in the deluxe wing may need some additional TLC, they are comfortable but are looking a bit older. Breakfast was very good, would absolutely recommend having breakfast there. We would stay at the Bristol again.
