Mixed review ...
The hotel has an excellent location, & many pluses including beautiful exterior & lobby, stunning views from the very comfortable sun terrace etc.. The room I stayed in was in need of revamp however & the heat/no air conditioning/very noisy fan combination meant that even in mid May it was very uncomfortable to sleep in (or rather to try to sleep in). I believe there are some updated rooms available (for a higher charge) - would go for one of those next time, or somewhere else altogether. I also ate in the restaurant in the evening - food was ok when eventually my order was taken & it arrived, but just ok so overall a disappointing evening. I’d had lunch further down the road earlier in the day & it was lovely (forget name).

Nice hotel, but . . .
There are significant pluses and minuses associated with this hotel. On the plus side is that it has a great location and the lobby and restaurant are quite elegant. Very "old Europe" look and feel. Also the hotel has parking if you are driving. There are several negatives, however. First is that there is no air conditioning (at least in the room that I had). Opening the window is your only option and even then there isn’t enough of a cross ventilation to do much good. It was warm, but not hot when I was there. In the heat of summer, I think this would be a real problem. The room furnishings look like they have been there since Stalin’s day. Bathroom had tub and hand shower and a faucet-like toilet flush mechanism. Navigating to the hotel garage is a challenge due to one way streets. I would suggest trying to get the hotel to give you directions via fax or e-mail using Google maps. The hotel’s address is on Kiraly utca, but this is a pedestrian zone where cars aren’t allowed. The garage entrance is around the corner off of Szechenyi Istvan ter. The most obvious route to the square from highway 6 (the main way to get into Pecs from the north) runs into a short street that is open only to buses and taxis. So you have to go around and approach from the north on Hunyadi Janos utca. When you come into the square from the north you will see signs for the hotel’s garage. Parking is extra and quite costly when compared to prices for other things in the area.
Traveller's tip for business travellers
The hotel has a same day laundry service that operates on Saturdays. You may have to ask a second time to get the desk clerk to agree that they do weekend laundry. The clerk on the desk Friday said "yes", but on Saturday morning a different clerk said "no", but I made him check and the laundry got done. Price was quite reasonable for hotel laundry service.
