9.6/10 Exceptional! (605 reviews)
We loved our stay at this hotel. It was very clean and spacious. The breakfast was great and the location was excellent, just a short walk from the main attractions and the tram stop is very close. What made is extra special was the staff! They were all very professional, had excellent recommendations and went out of their way to assist us with whatever we needed. We will definitely be returning.

Great location. Murad is a great lad, he allowed us to check in early and helped us find a taxi for our transfer.
I’d suggest Gritti Pera to work on their breakfast.
