A real treat. Perfect location near trams and metro, but also walking distance from everything. Friendly staff, relaxed, welcoming. My simple, single room was just right for a few days. Next time I might upgrade to a canal view as the view is lovely. Recommended.

What a wonderful stay our family had here! I cannot say enough about it!!!…The hotel had so much character and our room was lovely with rich decor. Everything was extremely clean- all the staff were warm and inviting and so helpful! The complimentary green tea “hydration” station in the lobby was amazing and the breakfast… wow! I have a gluten allergy and the sweet staff baked me the first gluten free croissant I’ve had in over 15 years! Definitely stay here if you are considering it! Hotel highlights Luxury · Great view · Romantic · Quiet · Kid-friendly

Lovely place to stay! We had a canal view and it was perfect. Complementary breakfast was appreciated. This hotel was in the center of many things to do. It had a cozy feel to it. The lounge was pretty and they have a cute little gift shop! Just an FYI, there is no elevator. It wasn't an issue for us but good to know for those who may need it.
