Très bon séjour en famille.

J'ai passé un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel. J'étais en famille avec un bébé d'1 an et très bien accueilli. Le personnel a toujours été au petit soin avec mon bébé. Toujours souriant et prêts à aider. Bien placé, nous n'avons pas eu besoin de prendre le tram ou le métro pour nos déplacements. Je recommande vivement cet hôtel. Le petit déjeuner était très bien.
