Great hotel close to the sights. Highly recommend the hop on hop off bus bookable at the front desk, where the stop is only a 10 min walk. Clean, modern and a very comfy bed. The continental breakfast is amazing to boot! We also had a beautiful balcony, and enjoyed the gorgeous rooftop restaurant.

Location is close to train station and easy to travel to main sites. Its also great for quieter evenings as its outside the core. Highly recommended. Roof top patio is excellent however the service was not as welcoming as the front desk team and morning breakfast servers.
