S Paul City Hotel

This small three-star hotel was a truly pleasant surprise. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting this level of quality from a three-star property. I’ve travelled all over the world and have stayed in four-star hotels that were nowhere near as good as this one. Let’s start with the property itself: it’s beautiful, elegant and distinctive, with very spacious common areas. The reception and breakfast room are both very well designed and maintained, with a stylish indoor area and a lovely outdoor space with tables and trees. The rooms are genuinely spacious and tastefully decorated, with everything you could need for a comfortable stay. The only minor downside was the bathroom door: because of the very high ceilings, it didn’t close completely at the top, which meant there wasn’t as much privacy as there could have been. As for the staff, everyone we encountered, from the housekeeping team to the rest of the staff, was always friendly, smiling and professional. A special thank you to Marta at reception, who welcomed us from the very beginning with a big smile and a wonderful attitude. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide and varied selection to suit practically every taste. The quality was very good, and the variety on offer was definitely above average. Overall, a fantastic experience. I would absolutely recommend this hotel, and I have to say: congratulations to the entire team!

The hotel was in a great location, the room was lovely and very comfortable for our stay and the gentleman at reception was very helpful. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Breakfast perfect. Great staff. Lovely sized very comfortable room

N/a

Convenient location - direct proximity to the old town as well as the promenade. Magnificent building itself, with fantastic Christmas decoration. Own parking - especially valuable in the congested city center. Spacious room - with a very unique layout and decoration. Well equipped bar.

No camera at the parking gate made me run a like a shuttle between the reception and the gate itself - by the time I was back in the car and ready to enter, the gates were closing again. Receptionist did not offer the choice of the currency on the (foreign, non-EUR) credit card and entered an unnecessary dispute. The worst thing: unbearable odour in the room - the building is old and so is the piping/sewage system - we had to move the bed as far as possible from the bathroom sink to "survive the night". Breakfast: guests had to fight for the food; everything was missing, from bread, through milk for cereals, eggs, cheese, yoghurt etc. The tables were not cleaned immediately after being released by the former guests which produced a cumbersome "traffic jam". Looks like the breakfast service team hate their job, very unpleasant and unhelpful.
