Neiburgs Hotel

Neiburgs Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"From the outside to the inside this hotel oozes style. The facade of the building is exquisite and the interior very cool and sophisticated. We were welcomed at check in and having had an early morning flight it was a welcome change to be offered access to our room immediately. Also, a total surprise we were offered a complimentary upgrade to a duplex apartment, it was amazing! So spacious. An entrance way with a wardrobe for coats shoes and a safe opened onto a kitchen, dining and living open plan area on the ground floor, it also had a downstairs loo. The kitchen had a lavazza coffee machine, hob, fridge and a microwave, complimentary bottled water(replenished daily) plus complimentary tea, coffee, milk and sugar. The wooden stairs led to a large bedroom area with wardrobe, kingsize bed and a spacious bathroom with underfloor heating, shower over a roll top bath, plus a large sink area with plenty of room to store toiletries. Towels were large and soft and complimentary slippers and dressing gowns were also provided. There was also a little snug area with a pitched roof containing a bean bag and lamp off the bedroom with two skylights. Breakfast was wonderful, hot and cold options all of a high standard and the service by the friendly staff was exemplary. They have a Michelin star restaurant onsite too. A truly exceptional family owned hotel, we enjoyed our stay very much and wouldn’t hesitate to return."
