Perfect location. Beautiful hotel. Comfortable beds and linens. Huge and delicious breakfast buffet. Gorgeous views from our windows and from the large dining room. Easy parking. Great staff, especially Simon. Only complaint is that our schedule didn’t afford more time there.

We stayed here in Dec during Christmas market. It is an older hotel, but it is expected given the location in a medieval town. It is central to almost everything. The famous Plolein corner is right outside the hotel. Breakfast is good. Internet connection is also good. The slight draw back is the 14 min walk back to the train station, which is slightly uphill.
