Jenny Feb 15, 2026 02:48:30 AM

Summary: The hotel location is great, easily walkable to the town centre and also the train station. On the negative side we found the room on the warm side, and opening the window did mean that we were subject to traffic noise and sirens during the night. The positives were that the spa is a great asset, just to be able to go and spend a bit of time relaxing even if you don't have a treatment. The highlight was the breakfast though, literally everything you could ever want was laid out!
