Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Rooms and value score lower than location — While the hotel scores 8.1 for rooms and 7.6 for value, the location and staff ratings are notably higher, suggesting you're paying for the address.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, which is a limitation if you're travelling with an animal.
- Check-in window closes at midnight — Check-in is from 15:00 to 23:59, so if you arrive after midnight, you'll need to arrange late arrival with the hotel.

8.1Verified guest“I had a very good stay during the Christmas holidays. The staff were efficient, and the location was stunning in the old town right opposite the river.
