Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers larger rooms with antique furniture, including comfortable brass bedsteads, making them very cosy. The attentive and helpful room service, especially on the second floor, enhances the stay.
The hotel offers stunning rooms with original brass taps in the bath, making for a truly unique stay. The rooms are larger than other options in the area, providing a spacious and clean accommodation. However, the location is a bit rundown and may not be ideal for all tourists.
