Just a quick note on this hotel. I just got back from my stay.

As I have seen on other boards before, this hotel has two towers. If you bid on HotWire like I did, you will end up in the "City Tower". While the room is still nice, it is incredibly noisy. Is stayed on the 12th floor, and it sounded like the cars were lining up right outside my window. I complained and tried to move to another room, but they were full, or unwilling to move me.

Also note that some room rates include breakfast. If you purchase on HW, your rate will not include breakfast. The breakfast buffet is 27eur which is quite steep, although it is a nice spread. There are many walk up restaurants within a few blocks, but nothing else immediately surrounding the hotel.

I would not willingly stay at this hotel again, but that is my 2c.
