Great location, you can go to the main attraction walking or take the bus, your choice. Dinner was not the best and overpriced, better to go out and enjoy a better meal same price.

Will not stay again
The reception was not helpful, we drove far away to the hotel and found the car park was no space. I asked the reception what should we do and he told me to find another car park by ourselves or wait at the car park! Finally we waited for 1 hour and not yet started our dinner. Also, the reception didn’t tell me the check out time, when I asked him and he was unwilling to tell. We stayed for 2 nights and asked for room cleaning in the second day morning. After we backed to the room, only the beds were tidy up, the toilet didn’t clean, and lack of facial paper. When I went down to ask for it, the reception said he don’t know English! Last but not least, when we left the car park, the bar code didn’t work! We need to go up and down to change the bar code, finally the bar code still not worked and we needed to ring the bell. What are bad experiences 😔😔😔
Room is small but it’s okay for family of 3.

Great Hotel
The hotel staff is very friendly. The hotel is convenient to get to train station, church, chocolate factory etc. The room had everything we needed and was very clean. The breakfast is 24€ for an adult but they didn’t charge for the kids. I’m not sure what age the cut off is, but ours are 7. It is a fantastic breakfast though with everything you can think of. We’ve stayed here on multiple occasions and would stay again!
