+ decent buffet spread with excellent cooked to order items such as eggs benedict, eggs florentine and a chocolate waffle which was fantastic. The chef really put pride into his breakfast ^
+ nice pool area, although very limited wrt pool area lounging
+ proper sauna with "stone" heater that you could heat yourself (didn't try the Turkish sauna)
+ extremely approachable staff, especially concierges
+ the shopping mall connected to the hotel was actually rather nice
+ a lot of bars and restaurants along the Donau just a few steps from the hotel
o the not-so-charming club lounge was equipped with snacks, hot items and cheap Austrian sparkling wine, local red and white and beer
- it was about 10-15min on foot to the old town with rough-looking buildings etc
- the main hotel bar Amber was closed during our stay.
