Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the spacious and modern rooms, some noting the coffee machine as a welcome touch. Many highlight the stunning views from the Das Loft restaurant on the 18th floor, where they enjoy both à la carte breakfasts and fine dining experiences. The hotel's location allows for convenient walks to landmarks like the cathedral, though a few guests have mentioned the TV and sound system could be a bit complex to use initially. Being near the Ferris wheel is considered a plus, especially for enjoying events like New Year's Eve fireworks.

The room was spacious with plenty of closet space. I found the bed comfortable and large (perfect for cuddling). The bathroom had very nice features. I really appreciated the coffee machine, made mornings extra special.
The TV and sound system were a bit tricky to use at first.

The room offered two separate sinks and a rainfall shower. I also enjoyed the spacious layout and design. The cathedral view offered a beautiful backdrop, especially during sunrise and sunset ( amazing!).
