Go with a better option than here

Reception is only open 15:00-20:00 so if you need anything or have questions before or after these times, you cannot reach anyone. Check out is at 11:00. Since no one is available at the desk, you cannot check out manually if you prefer to settle charges and have a receipt in your hand before you leave. You must drop your keys in a box and hope they do not mess up your bill. The customer service is non existent, and the rooms are very basic. Cleanliness was good, and the breakfast was normal for a European breakfast. The view from the dining facility on the 19th floor is lovely. The morning staff was friendly, unlike the front desk reception staff who are cold and robotic, lacking any hospitality customer service training. Overall, there's a sinister energy about this place, so we would not choose to stay here again.

Der Empfang an der Rezeption war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer war geräumig und sauber, der Ausblick vom 12. Stock aus war großartig. Das Frühstück war lecker, WLAN lief schnell und stabil. Insgesamt bietet das Hotel ein hervorragendes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

Die beiden Damen an der Rezeption waren bei unserer Ankunft an Langsamkeit nicht zu übertreffen 🙉 beim Service ist es sehr gut, wenn man sich selbst zu helfen weiß. Zimmer waren sauber und jeden Tag top gemacht und auch immer mit frischen Handtüchern 👍 Frühstück war sehr gut und reichhaltig und der Herr, der dafür zuständig war, immer sehr zuvorkommend 👍

Der Aufschnitt bei Frühstück , war schon angetrocknet und der Camembert war abgelaufen. Wobei das abgelaufen nicht so schlimm war, aber der Käse roch ganz fies.

Toujours heureux de revenir dans cet hôtel que je connais depuis 1997. Je le recommande par rapport à sa situation en centre ville et la grandeur des chambres, son style vintage fera le bonheur des nostalgiques des seventies 😎😎
