We stayed for 4 nights. The location of the hotel is perfect, everything is nearby. The room was clean with enough space for our bags. Staff was polite and very helpful. Breakfast was excellent, in particular bread and pastries! Some reviews mentioned noises at night due to its location but it was very quiet and we didn't need to use ear plugs. It may be because we stayed in weekdays, though. We will come back to the hotel again and recommend this hotel to other people.

Staff were very kind. They honored my request to receive a top floor. The room was clean and cozy. Breakfast was delicious. A lot of variety was available. The convenience of the hotel location was nice as well. It was far enough from the loud club/bar areas, but close enough walk (~10mins) when we wanted to go. We especially loved how close we were to Sandholt and Braud & Co. Both cafes were phenomenal and offered delicious food, pastries, coffee and tea. Thank you! We would stay again.

Great hotel location, close to shops and many restaurants. The entire staff was warm and friendly, and would do whatever they could for you. The reception staff was fantastic, literally. Arrived on early morning flight at 8AM, and they gave us a room for an early check in, which was great. Ivan was great, and caring for the guests.
