“Great resort hotel on the edge of the medieval town”

I had a very relaxing time here and enjoyed the breakfast on the terrace and coffee afterwards. I was lucky with the weather. Ask and you shall receive. I asked for a river view with balcony and a quiet room and all three were delivered. View was relaxing. It is over the roof of the pool but still gave a good aspect of the river. Room large and well equipped. It was hot and the A/C coped. Bed comfortable and everything else worked. Agree with one reviewer that at this standard of hotel the lack of separate shampoo in the room is odd. I just brought my own with me. Breakfast is excellent and serve with a view over the river if you get a window seat or sit outside. Sparkling wine adds an air of luxury and this one is surprisingly drinkable, many are not. A chef will make you an omelette or pancakes. but this isn't very clear when you enter the buffet. Range is fantastic for meat and fish eaters, but as a vegetarian I did very well. It's well worth the money as an extra. I should add that fellow reviewers are right there can be quite a lot of families with children at breakfast. I cannot understand why this troubles people and as you'll discover this is not the same as encountering some British families on holiday. Children largely well behaved and parents engaged with their children. It's just outside the main tourist area making it quieter at night. A pleasant walk along the river brings you just below the medieval city centre. The bar area seems to be empty a lot and it's a bit soulless, but better to drink on the terrace. I was offered a welcome drink. The outside pool is fantastic and both quieter and less crowded than indoors. There are many other facilities. So, highly recommended for a relaxing stay in this charming city. I secured a room and breakfast for 103 pounds per night which I felt was good value. And gingerbread in your room on arrival. :)

“Not the best choice for famillies”

I booked a family stay. My mistake was that I didn’t notice the small print saying that children (9 and 11) must share a bed with a parent! I assumed there would be two or three separate beds. There was an option to pay extra for a small additional bed, but the room was so small that we decided not… more

I booked a family stay. My mistake was that I didn’t notice the small print saying that children (9 and 11) must share a bed with a parent! I assumed there would be two or three separate beds. There was an option to pay extra for a small additional bed, but the room was so small that we decided not to take it. The restaurant menu is very sophisticated, so if you’re a food connoisseur you’ll be pleased. If you want to enjoy refined flavours, this is the right place. But if you simply want a straightforward meal and to feel full, it may not be the best choice. “Normal” food is available on the children’s menu (tomato soup, burger, nuggets, etc.), but adults aren’t allowed to order from it. :)

“Nice view poor service”

The hotel itself is modern architecture and well located at the river bank with nice view but get old already. The room smells bed I had to sleep with open window all night. Gym is literally in the garage between parking cars and both treadmills very broken. Staff seem to be underpaid as they are … more

The hotel itself is modern architecture and well located at the river bank with nice view but get old already. The room smells bed I had to sleep with open window all night. Gym is literally in the garage between parking cars and both treadmills very broken. Staff seem to be underpaid as they are not really engaged with customer satisfaction at any point. During the breakfast I asked waiter for coffee and I was told to help myself. Also the food was grab from my nose as the breakfasts time has ended. I had to pay for a parking even if my car wa parked on the side of the road and not on the parking.
