How we score
Each score is worked out by code from the facts this page shows, never from guests’ ratings or a writer’s opinion, and is given as 1 to 5 dots.
Near the sights: how close the nearest listed sight is, and how many are within 1 km. Rooms: the room sizes we show and how many types there are. Facilities: how many kinds the hotel lists (dining, pool or spa, fitness, front desk services, comfort and access). Families: whether children are welcome, and family rooms, a kids’ club or pool, a playground, babysitting. Wellness: spa, hammam, sauna, steam room, pools, gym and massage.
A score is left out when the hotel’s facts are too few to judge it.

Room service, a lift and a shuttle service for a fee
The hotel offers room service, a lift and family rooms, and runs a shuttle service for which a fee applies. The lift matters for travellers with heavy luggage or small children.
With children allowed and two 33 m² family rooms, a family of three fits comfortably: the Standard Family Room pairs a double bed with a twin bed, and the Family Room a queen bed with two twin beds, so a child gets a separate bed in either.

Who it suits and who it does not
