Great location and lovely rooms.
The location was excellent. Trams, buses and metros were one block down and free transportation on all of these if you’re over 65
Obviously a renovated hotel because everything looked new. Beds were comfortable, bathroom had a tub, nice size room. Breakfast was fabulous—they even had prosecco and Drambui if you wanted, as well as a variety of breads, pastries, cereals, eggs, bacon, sausages, meats, cheeses, and fruits. Juices and coffees also.
Lots of restaurants nearby and walking distance to St Stephan’s , Opera House and the big Mosque. Would definitely stay here again.
