Nice hotel but noisy
Overall we had a good stay, the service was great and the staff very helpful, however the airvents not only transfer air but also all the noise from the next door room. We had a family with a small child as neighbors and were woken up by the child crying. Wonderful spa though!

Lovely hotel, friendly staff, wonderful breakfast buffet, nice spa, great location on beautiful park right next to Old Town. Unfortunately, my bath drain was clogged when I arrived and I had to get it fixed on three separate occasions during my five-night stay. While response from staff was immediate, they did not seem particularly concerned when i approached front desk staff the final time and told them this had already happened already two times prior. Overall, nice stay, but 5 stars is a bit generous.
