Ok stay, why no gym or mini fridge in room

Hotel is good, very good breakfast. Room was ok. My only disappointments : no mini fridge to cool something and no gym! I think for a small town like this they should make parking free

Great place, will stay here more often

If you take the new rooms, they are nice and compact. The TV screen is a bit out kf proportion, but I actually enjoyed the size more and more watching from bed. Food in the restaurant is good, the chef has been given a lot of freedom, this shows in a good way. Friendly people and the know how to make a good mocktail. Take the sauna. Good and relaxing place to chill with a alcohol free Heineken.

Hinta halvempi ja laatu mielettömästi parempi kuin saman kaupungin huonosti pidetyissä Scandic-läävissä. Best hotel of the town. Stay away from the over-priced Scandic Dumps like Aulanko.

Kauniisti remontoitu, hyvällä paikalla. Erittäin siisti ja rauhallinen huone. Aamiainen oli täydellinen! Henkilökunta ystävällistä. Loistava sijainti; juna-asema, teatteri, museot ja keskustan kaupat lähellä. Upea ulkoilureitti järven rannalla.

Hotelli täydellisellä sijainnilla, kivenheiton päässä Hämeenlinnan juna-asemasta! Hotelli rauhallinen ja sisällä rauhoittava musiikki sekä ihana puun tuoksu! Itse olen lähtenyt poikkeuksetta ennen aamiaista joten olen saanut aina pussissa maittavan aamiaisen. Hotelli koiraystävällinen!
