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.

From the 45 m² balcony apartments to the 50 m² family rooms
All six room types are apartments, and they divide into two sizes: the two balcony rooms are 45 m² each, and the other four are 50 m² each. The Apartment with Balcony and the King Room with Balcony each have one queen bed and a sea view; the Apartment with Balcony sleeps up to 1.
The four 50 m² rooms all face the city. The Superior Apartment, the Family Suite and the Luxury Quadruple Room each have one queen bed and two twin beds, which suits families or groups of friends sharing. The Economy Apartment differs only in its bedding: one super-king bed and two twin beds. Children are allowed, and the hotel has family rooms, so the twin-and-queen layouts work for a family with children.
