Refined Stay at a Classic Hotel

great restaurantgood breakfastamazing viewconfusing corridor
The hotel included great restaurants. La Trattoria Enoteca was especially nice. I used room service for breakfast and found it good. Views from the main façade toward Cologne are breath-taking.
Finding ones way was hard because of no clear entrance. Confusing corridors and staircases created problems. Not enough signs made it difficult to locate amenities. I think a castle layout with the facilities would improve orientation.
Dining

Several restaurants are available on site, including La Trattoria Enoteca, which features a nice atmosphere. Breakfast room service presented a convenient dining option. Special dishes were not an option at breakfast.
Rooms

The Junior Suite offered spacious accommodations and a comfortable bed. Classic style is evident throughout the hotel design. There was no hot water heater nor tea bags in the room .
