The Marketplace Junior Suite had modern decor that was quite appealing. Additionally, the city view from the room created a pleasant atmosphere during our stay.

The amenities could have been more expansive.

rooftop area

dinner restaurant

repetitive breakfast

I recently enjoyed a lovely stay where relaxing on the rooftop area and having a delightful dinner at the restaurant were highlights for me. The wellness center had an amazing sauna and a serene steam room that made my stay even more rejuvenating. A minor hiccup was that breakfast options were a bit repetitive over three mornings, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. 😊

limited dining options

no gym

noise disturbance

Spacious rooms offered a modern yet comfortable feel, with a separate private water closet enhancing convenience. The location was ideal, right in the plaza with tram access and a short walk to the basilica. Fresh water was available at all times, and the terrace boasted stunning views. While the staff were friendly and spoke excellent English, the dining options could have been more varied, and the lack of a gym was noticeable for fitness enthusiasts.

Exceptional Service and Beautiful Location

I had a fantastic experience at this hotel. the friendly staff provided outstanding service and always made me feel welcome. The rooftop terrace offered breathtaking views of the city, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The breakfast was a highlight too, featuring freshly baked pastries and high-quality regional products. However, the noise from the trams at night was a bit disruptive to my sleep.
