I’ve stayed at the royal suite, Excellent hotel, friendly staff and very helpful,excellent room. Outstanding things: 1. We arrived very late at night 12am, They kindly prepared a complimentary dinner at our room for us, which was extremely helpful as all restaurants were closed. 2. The heated pool at the suite is amazing and it was such a standout that it will make us come back again specifically for this feature.

"The room was clean and well maintained. Unfortunately, the restaurant was one of the worst experiences I have had with Steinberger Hotels. The quality of the food was poor, and the service was disappointing. The restaurant staff was not helpful, and we often had to complain before receiving our food. ..."
