Beautiful hotel on the corner of The Bahnhof strasse, opposite the railway station. Very central. Amazing staff, especially in the cafe, we were greeted every time, by an amazing lady who remembered our breakfast order and room number. We would definitely stay again.

The hotel is older and very crowded, a lot of tour groups stay here. The train can be heard at all hours, it is not a quiet place to stay. The staff is friendly and accommodating, however it is noisy.

This hotel is right in the heart of the Banhoffstrasse and across from the main train station. It is a very charming hotel with exceptionally friendly and knowledgable staff. The welcome drink is a very nice touch and our room had a fruit basket and chocolates to greet us. I would stay here again!

An excellent hotel and extremely convenient being opposite the station. It stands next to the tram and bus stops so connectivity is easy. From beginning to end our stay was faultless. The staff were friendly and attentive at all times. Breakfast was excellent. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

A lovely and stylish 1930s style hotel with modern amenities. Staff were all excellent, we particularly enjoyed the butler passing out free chocolate from his cart. Easy access to the train station and thus serves as an excellent springboard for site seeing. The restaurant was also excellent. It has a posh atmosphere and serves great tasting food for great prices.
