My husband and I had a great stay at this hotel over New Years. We especially loved the location, it was so nice and quiet. As advised by someone in this thread, I had pro-actively sent an email and inquired about a possible platinum upgrade. We were assigned an executive studio, but since it was next to the elevator, I asked at check-in if they had another type of suite available. They found us a lovely 1BR suite on the second floor. It was quite large, with the bedroom facing the courtyard. We only missed something to hang our jackets on in the hallway - and the TVs could maybe have been a bit bigger.

The food in the lounge was decent (both morning/evening offerings), but the lounge was packed over the holiday. Not sure if this is the norm. At times it was quite hard to find somewhere to sit, and large families w/kids did not help. Plus, the air quality in the lounge was really bad. Cant say if the AC was broken or if it was intentional, but more than once I hoped that the lounge staff would have opened the balcony doors for some fresh air.

Regarding the breakfast option, we were not offered at check-in to have it in the main restaurant. But we did not ask for it either, the lounge selection was more than sufficient for us.

All in all a great hotel in a cool city, and we felt that the price we paid (420 EUR, prepaid, standard room) for three nights was a bargain. Would return in a heartbeat.
