The staff were very helpful and welcoming with great manners. The location of the hotel is ideal, it’s on a busy strip but it’s definitely not noisy or disruptive. The hotel is close to the main station and the trams. I would definitely recommend this hotel, I was pleased and would come here again. The rooftop was a nice sit down for dinner, the food was lovely.

The room is much more spacious and cleaner than it looks on the website, and the air conditioning is wonderfully cool. All the staff are friendly (which was such a relief after being worn out by the rudeness in Salzburg and Hallstatt) and very helpful. I highly recommend the rooftop restaurant’s barbecue and tuna steak, and the breakfast buffet was the best quality we’ve had during our entire Germany–Austria trip.

+ Friendly staff + Spacious, clean and renovated room + Clean hotel altogether + Parking (20€/day extra fee, quite small) + Room was very dark thanks to the blinds + Lovely bath tub in the Junior suite + Comfortable bed + Delightful breakfast, especially that you could make your own fresh juices! + Close to the city, but we felt it was still quite peaceful - It was very hot (even in April-May) because we could not keep the windows open because of the blinds, we did get a fan which helped a lot - At times very crowded breakfast and the staff couldn’t keep up, could have been a bit wider selection on the pastries

Stayed Saturday-Sunday. Lived on the 6th floor with kids. The rooftop bar on 7th floor was full blast which wasn’t very pleasant. Breakfast was very small, disappointing. Location 10/10, and if you don’t travel with kids I think you will have a good experience.
