I recently stayed at this hotel and honestly, it was just okay. The location is good, it’s close to the train station, which is convenient. But if you’re driving, there’s no parking provided, so you’ll have to sort that out yourself. The room wasn’t very clean, and the bed was way too soft for me. Soundproofing was average. I could hear noise from outside and other rooms. They also don’t provide basic toiletries like toothbrushes, so make sure you bring your own. The only thing provided was bottled water and some tea bags. I also paid extra for the buffet breakfast, but I didn’t think it was worth it. The selection and quality were pretty underwhelming. Overall, not a terrible stay, but definitely room for improvement.
The mini bar was also quite messy and disorganized.

Great reception and library area. A very smart modern hotel overall. The reception was welcoming. Bar and food a little tardy and a bit less freeing. But overall, would stay again. Good as solo business traveller
