Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel 717 offers beautifully renovated rooms in a cool, historical building, many with stunning interior design and comfortable beds. Its central location makes attractions easily walkable, and the museum district is especially close. Some guests in street-level rooms have noted occasional noise, but many appreciate the smaller touches like pillow mist spray and readily available slippers after a performance at the nearby Carré Theatre.

limited breakfast relaxation area

the hotel did not fully meet my expectations for the price. i found the breakfast offerings too limited with only croissants and chocolate pastries available. the absence of a bar or relaxation area also detracted from the experience.
