Poor WiFi87henry from Germany – 14 November 2024 (8/10)
Nice garden and bar.
What could be improved: Very basic breakfast. Not a big choice of restaurants in walking distance.
The whole building needs some modernisation.Tesch from United States – 8 November 2024 (9/10)
It is very well maintained. A pleasant oasis of race in the middle of a busy, busy city.
Restaurant and service was great!
Bell hops were very pleasant and helpful.
What could be improved: In my room I didn’t have a plug to connect my computer to charge. I bought an adapter and that worked. After I did that I saw the bathroom had up to date sockets.Dana from United States – 26 April 2024 (9/10)
The location is in the hotel. The waiters were observant, friendly, and helpful. The fresh orange juice was wonderful.
What could be improved: It would perhaps been nice to have a few more selections for breakfast.Larry from United States – 8 March 2024 (8/10)
Classic old hotel on edge of Zona Rosa. I've stayed there for years, as have friend. Very accommodating staff and a very comfortable setting … rooms OK, common areas great.
What could be improved: WiFi was not always very strong. Otherwise, nothing I really did not like.Sarah from Malaysia – 1 December 2023 (9/10)
Location, building, cleanliness.
What could be improved: I would have liked tea and coffee facilities in he room.
