Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Moderate comfort rating — While comfort scores 7.9—the lowest category—this may reflect variations in room size or bedding, rather than a major issue.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 20:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals; the hotel does offer a paid airport shuttle for convenience.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travellers with animals will need to make other arrangements.
  • Potential noise from central location — Being in the historic centre, guests may experience street noise; however, soundproofed rooms are available to mitigate this.
