Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offered an excellent stay with top-notch breakfast, all the expected comfort, and stunning sunset views from the higher-level rooms. The service was exceptional, offering room service, dry cleaning, housekeeping, laundry facilities, airport shuttle, a welcome drink, and tours or ticket assistance. The location was ideal, nestled in the picturesque old town at the heart of the old city, near all tourist attractions and within walking distance to UriBuri restaurant for a tasting menu experience. While the dining experience was delightful with tempting puddings, a couple of downsides included the slightly higher pricing and limited facilities compared to other options.
