    Value for money

Incredibly beautiful hotel, breakfast each day was tasty and the location to the Metro station at the end of King Street was absolutely perfect. In our huge room with a modern design there were comfortable beds. The staff was welcoming and the service was excellent, so it was a nice stay.

Loved to be here, the hotel was clean and wonderful, the location was amazing in Carlyle near a metro. Our room was well-organised and updated, offered with utensils included and comfortable beds plus the sofa.

Fairly clean and lovely accom with unbeatable location near to the movie theatres, all Old Town.
