What Guests Are Saying?
Review summary

The spacious rooms, some offering beautiful park views with cushioned window seats, feature turn-down service. While most find the experience exceptional, a few guests have mentioned occasional street noise in lower-floor rooms. Don't miss out on The Library and Contessa restaurant.

Satisfactory Stay with Minor Issues

convenient location helpful staff turndown service slow elevators street noise crowded bar
The location is quite convenient! it allows easy access to nearby attractions. I found the turndown service very nice, it ensured the room was always prepared for a restful night. The staff was helpful, they promptly addressed my inquiries and requests.
The elevators were a bit slow at times! this caused some delays when traveling between floors. The street noise was noticeable in my room, it was on a lower floor. I found it hard to get a seat at the street bar, it always seemed crowded.
