My stay at the hotel was delightful! The rooms were overlooking a beautiful courtyard, allowing natural light to fill the space, and they were surprisingly quiet even with the window open for fresh air. While the rooms were cozy and comfortable, there were some signs of age around the edges despite a bathroom makeover.

I couldn't have asked for a better location, right by the rose garden and just a short stroll to the main city area. The service was impeccable, with attentive and kind staff making my stay truly special. The dining experience left me satisfied, especially enjoying some live music in the evening. However, it was disappointing to find dust everywhere in the room that seemed untouched for months.

The hotel has a modern average room that overlooks the outdoor terrace, but may get noisy when it gets hot and the door needs to be opened. The service is friendly and professional, but some issues with breakfast service. The location is fantastic, next to the Watertower park and other city landmarks. The dining experience is good value for money but can get chaotic when the hotel is full.

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and had the most amazing view of the glacier. It was so relaxing to arrive back in the evening to the quiet yard-facing windows rather than a busy street. The hotel was also very cozy and comfortable, creating a delightful atmosphere.

The hotel has the potential to become a great one, but my stay was not super clean. Despite this, the room was suitable for a business trip, and I enjoyed the amazing view of the glacier. However, sleeping with an open window until 3 am was impossible due to noise issues that were not resolved despite contacting the front desk.
