Lounge food is decent, certainly didn’t mean to give any other impression.

Breakfast is very good, especially with the A La Carte egg options. I’m not a huge eater of breakfast but appreciate that the option exists.

From 11am to 6pm there is warmed nuts and soft drinks.

6pm to 8pm is the evening buffet which is normally a meat dish, a fish dish, and veg. I am a full on carnivore as you may have guessed by my meal choices, you’ve yet to see a salad grace my table. My Romanian friend commented that not only I, but the entire English race, are carb obsessed which is a damning comment coming from a Romanian who believes pork is the best vegetable! He is also right

The evening food is a poor shadow of the breakfast, and probably purposefully in an establishment with this many on site food options.

The drinks are available a very generous 5pm to 10pm lounge close and are bottom shelf spirits and mostly local beer and wine and I’m more than happy with that, I always choose local beer and wine.

The coffee is nespresso and I am truly delighted by that, having unlimited decent coffee on tap 16 hours of the day.

On a trip like this, late in Friday, early out Sunday, the lounge is not good value just as a lounge as you basically pay double. I still pay for it for the utility and the coffee but mostly because the lounge access only comes on the exec room which means that with my Radisson status it almost guarantees an upgrade to a junior suite or better.

I think when I once did the math breakfast included in room rate is around the 35 euro mark per night and the lounge is around the 70 euro mark. If you are a couple or a family the math changes radically.
