The perfect location for most of the must see attractions in the city. Tram and taxis right outside and many restaurant options within walking distance. One area for improvement is changing up the breakfast buffet food options once in a while. Not everyone wants an egg every morning.

The historical aspect of the property was lovely. It’s kept up very well. The daily cleaning service is wonderful. We never got a ride except for the airport, as everything is very walkable, so many options for food, drinks, shopping, and museums.

This was the absolute best hotel that I’ve ever stayed at. The staff were top notch and the hospitality. You were treated like you mattered. Our room was beautiful. Comfortable and clean with a beautiful view of the canal. Be sure to take advantage of the breakfast. It was fabulous. The area is near bus lines as well as many restaurants and shops. Excellent all around. This hotel is what the standard for all others should be. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable stay.
