my taste. But is it a heritage hotel and felt like old Europe - so pretty much as expected. Saw other rooms and they were large and well kept. So I think ours was not typical. Take the tour - well worth it. Interesting history. Dinner is an experience worth savoring for a treat. But so many other great places in the city it is worth venturing out. Room Tip: Get a river view room. car not required See more room tips Stayed March 2011, travelled on business Value Location Sleep Quality Rooms Cleanliness Service Was this review helpful?

The location is excellent and the hotel is like a chateau. The room size was fine but the bathroom was too small and needs to be updated pronto. Go to the top floor to take photos of the view because it's spectacular. The buffet breakfast is also very good but try to avoid the busy time. The restaurant is good also, but make a booking.
