Location was ideal. Our room was at the back so very quiet. BUT the mattress of sofa bed was thin and springy so not confortable sleep, PLUS the room was Super Warm making it very difficult to sleep!!! We opened the window but that didn’t make much of a difference!!! We were visiting mid June and it wasn’t very hot weather, just to note! Only heating available in that room no fan.

It is an absolutely wonderful location - having a view of the castle from my room was simply amazing. The staff was extremely helpful since I had come late and the airline has still not gotten my bag back to me. Kudos to the folks at the desk. Wonderful breakfast - probably the best oatmeal I had had in my life. Seriously the oat porridge was amazing with the fruit compote and honey. Definitely a great hotel.

Location is excellent and very walkable to all the main tourist attractions. Staff was very accommodating and helpful at checkin. It's nice that you can use the sister hotel's facilities next door (we didn't use the pool, but made use of the bar, which had a nice selection). Our room was located in a quiet portion of the hotel, which was excellent, though if you're sensitive to the sound of slamming doors, this may keep you awake if there are other guests coming and going near your room. The shower grout was a bit moldy in several places, but other than that, the room and linens were very clean.
