Nice hotel in an old merchant's home. No elevator and a long flight of stairs to reach the rooms, so be prepared. Breakfast was good, a medium buffet; the waitstaff is Russian but happy to use google translate for help. Quiet enough since inside the old town and no vehicles. Comfortable room, decent bathroom. Shopping and restaurants aplenty.

Fantastic location, two minutes from the main square. Lovely clean rooms and maid service every day. Friendly staff apart from the woman at breakfast, couldn’t even crack a smile. Limited choice at breakfast, I’m not a fussy person but struggled each morning to enjoy it. We ate out the last morning. Other than that I would highly recommend Cru Hotel

Perfect location, easy to get to key areas in the city. Room was great, though if you are facing the street, I would recommend bringing ear plugs as it can get very noisy on the weekend and impossible to sleep. Breakfast was standard. Overall I would stay here again.

CRU was the perfect location for Old Town. Our room was spacious and we loved sitting in our big windows overlooking the street and watching the tourists walk by. The staff was so lovely and the artichokes in the CRU restaurant were to die for.

Our original premium room had a dangerous deep step in the middle of the room. Awful. We switched to a regular room, which was satisfactory. No elevator. Breakfast was OK. Hotel restaurant is excellent: Osteria il CRU.

This hotel is absolutely fabulous. We are a family traveling and this is a perfect spot. Hotel itself has so much character and unique architectural features. The staff were so pleasant and accommodating. The breakfast was delightful and location is perfect to walk Old Town. We would recommend this hotel to anyone. Only catch- be aware there are some stairs and if mobility is an issue, let front desk know so they can assist you.

Great location

Great location in a fascinating city. The hotel is several very old buildings connected with little corridors. Our room was quirky very clean and comfortable. Staff were helpful. We ate in the restaurant one night, interesting food, maybe too many odd things brought together on the same plate.
