The reception by the staff was very nice and helpfull. Also the interior in the reception and brakfast area was very beautiful. Breakfast was very good.
Location was also good. Not to far from train communication and short walking distance to the interesting areas.
The room was a bit cold but worse, the internet didn't work and there was something wrong with the lights in the bathroom.

Marvellous staff and elegant rooms. The breakfast was excellent- particularly the waffle maker! The hotel could do with a refreshing coat of paint perhaps but in no way does that detract from the pleasure of the experience. I also particularly
appreciated the parking facilities
There was nothing I didn't enjoy

The unassuming facade in an unassuming street does not prepare you for the lobby, reception and grand rooms of the ground floor of this potentially lovely boutique hotel.
There is a past splendour here that is being restored from the bottom up, with terazzo floor, high ceilings and a grand atmosphere from years ago. There is also a courtyard garden (not open at the time). Reception was a pleasant area, but with a very pleasant, informative and efficient member of staff who gave a brief history of the property and also provided a glass of prosecco in welcome.
Only staying one night, we had opted for an 'attic' room (the old servants quarters) and after about 70 steps up the increasingly narrow stairs, it became obvious that renovations had yet to reach the upper floors.
A parking space could be booked, for a fee, and was a few metres away in an insecure 'garage'. The hotel was located a few metres off the main road into town, where public transport was readily available, and it was only a 15 minute walk into the centre.
Despite some issues with the room which were brought to the management's attention by email, we can definitely recommend this interesting hotel and look forward to a return visit, hopefully to see all the works completed.
Nothing really. Much potential.

The stay was fine overall, and the free breakfast the next morning made up for the check-in wait.
The room looked old and unfinished, with missing paint on the walls, and we had to wait an extra hour for a room we’d already booked. We also heard other guests had no hot water.
