“This hotel understands true hospitality, making guests feel exceptionally welcomed from arrival through a discreet, seated check-in with champagne. Its riverside setting offers a peaceful escape, yet places the city centre within a pleasant walk, and the elegantly appointed rooms and attentive staff create a luxurious atmosphere. Dining, whether an a la carte meal or a more casual bar bite, consistently impresses, and the breakfast selection is particularly noteworthy for its quality and variety.”
