Wer auf den Charme alter Hotels steht, soll es versuchen

8.0

Das Hotel besitzt einen gewissen Charme, bedingt durch das Alter. Das Personal war freundlich und das Frühstück (nicht inklusive) sehr gut.

− Die Zimmer waren recht klein, kaum Platz für Gepäck. Dafür war der Preis recht hoch.

Ein herrlich altmodisches Hotel, ohne Aufzug und Swimmingpool, aber mit viel britischem Charme - und gutem WLAN.

Echt Engelse sfeer en de locatie was heel goed. Alles is op loopafstand.

− Geen lift, maar dat was voor ons geen probleem

Guest review

8.0

Good location, fantastic staff who let us use their washing machine.

− Bedroom was small with too much furniture in our apartment.

Notre séjour dans cet établissement fut à la hauteur de nos attentes. Nous recommandons sans hésiter

9.0

La chambre que nous avions était très grande et tranquille. Le lit king était vraiment confortable. La salle de bain privative était grande et propre.

− Des chaises de détente plus confortables dans la chambre auraient bien, mais ce n'était pas un irritant. Ce n'est qu'une suggestion.
