“What strikes me most is the successful blend of grandeur and practicality. Its family-friendly rooms, spacious enough to accommodate young children, manage to remain quiet despite the central location and, what's more, the attentive staff clearly understand the needs of both leisure and business travelers, complemented by event spaces ready to host any occasion.”
