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.

Check-in from 14:00, check-out until 11:00
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 11:00. Children are allowed at the hotel, so families booking the Standard Queen Room or the Deluxe Double Room, each of which sleeps up to 3, are within the rules. Pets are not allowed. Parking is paid for anyone arriving by car.
Who Blu Hotel suits
The rooms are compact, 15 to 21 m², so it is a place to sleep and set out from rather than to spread out in.
It does not suit travellers with pets, as they are not allowed, and anyone driving should factor in paid parking. No room type at the hotel sleeps more than 3, so larger groups would need more than one room.
