Great staff

Staying two nights and we got an upgrade, which is very well received thank you so much. It’s been a few years since I stayed here. The staff are very helpful and we had a great time.
Adam, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely recommend!

Absolutely coming back! I’ve heard about it for years and it was gay-mazing. The pool was so fun all afternoon and I stayed on a Monday! Room was fantastic, it’s in the heart of the gayborhood so for anyone not extremely familiar you’ll be able to navigate easily. They gave me a free room upgrade too!
ron, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

LGBTQ+ appreciated

Overall, this was a good hotel in a great location. As a gay, couple, it is so nice to have a welcoming place. The staff was friendly and helpful. We appreciated that breakfast was included. The man at breakfast was especially friendly and helpful. As usual, as Americans, we have found the beds to be hard and very uncomfortable, but that has been a common complaint at every place we've stayed. Overall, it was a good experience.

4/10 Fair

Decent but overpriced

Cleaning was probably the only positive about this stay and the close proximity to many lgbt places. The hallways are very loud and can be heard from the room, the service at the pool area is non-existing, overpriced stay for what you’re getting. Would probably find another accommodation next time in the same area.

Staff was super friendly, hotel was walking distance to a lot of things.

6/10 Good

Party Central Poor Accommodation

Great location, central for everything and close to bars and entertainment with the hotel having a good bar also and mainly friendly clientele. The quality of the accommodation however is poor, room we stayed in was very run down and not cleaned well. The hotel is not value for money but a a good time can be had here.

Stuart, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very sexy hotel. The bar was fun each night, and the rooms were amazing. If you have the rooms with the access to outdoor smoking area, you might get lucky with a hot visitor looking for fun. Exhibitionists would love
Daniel, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel was really nice, staff really friendly and helpful and great location. Only negative was the music from reception was quite loud and I could hear it in my room until late night. Otherwise great hotel and would stay again

300 euros for a night and you get a bathroom like this! Sadly I found this hotel to be very tired on all areas, friends said I was unlucky to have a ‘non refurbed room’ but it didn’t come with a non refurbed price tag ! A few other things to mention. Terribly slow service in the bar from a team who looked totally bored to be there. In fact the whole attitude of the staff was lacking. Watch out for the elevators, you’ll wait a while in busy times. Visit the roof terrace for amazing views but again slow service and a really sad bar area. There are good points. The hotel could not be better located. If you want to explore the city it is perfect. Actually that is the only good point. Always wanted to stay here, total dissapointment.
