The location is absolutely perfect and the hotel is elegant, quiet, dignified - a taste of Europe as it should be. The dining room, which is also a grand cafe open all day, is one of the most beautiful rooms in Europe and the food and service are superb. The rooms are very spacious, the bathroom is first rate - large tub plus large show, bidet, etc. And the rooms are completely quiet - no street noise - and they are serviced beautifully. WiFi works great. The Spa, however, is not great: the pool is open, but you have to phone 30 minutes in advance to use the sauna, and massage was booked up (they need more staff!). No steam room, apparently, and the exercise room is quite small.
