"What a lovely hotel - welcoming staff - right in the square - exactly where we wanted to be - with the Christmas market and festivities.

"Excellent facilities overall. Very interesting mix of old and modern. Beautifully restored.
A couple of inconsistencies:

2) WiFi is unstable in certain rooms. "
