8.6/10 Excellent! (274 reviews)

Rooftop sauna area was lovely but pool the floors down sadly. Shocked at being charged 5€ a day for “ energy costs” when checking out!!!! No replacement of coffee pods or tea bags- very mean for a 4 star hotel. We slept ok but some may find train noisy outside our window. Rhine view nice and citibikes to hire on site - very handy and cheap!

Excellent staff, amazing massage in the spa, the most comfortable bed. A welcome reprieve after a troubled flight and unexpected overnight on our trip.
