A great option near the station

This is a great basic hotel that knows its customer and serves them well. Very, very comfortable with friendly staff it is ideal to use as a base to explore the area. It is walkable to the station and an easy walk to the city centre although there are trams available nearby too. We loved the honesty bar approach when reception was unstaffed and there are some great food options nearby. Sokrates around the corner is exceptional.

Good value for money...

Overnight stay during family trip to Austria. Check in was easy, room was big with big double bed and bunk bed for kids. After driving most of the day it was good to have hot shower and comfy bed. Breakfast was good (selection of hot and cold food). In my opinion really good value for money (£88 for 2 + 2 - including breakfast) and if you’re lucky enough you might even get parking in front of the hotel :)
