I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was amazing, right across from the monastery and very central with a view on the Abbey. The service was very helpful, especially the staff who picked us up at the train station. However, the rooms did have a serious need for renovation, with old, green curtains hanging over plywood type walls.

The hotel offers a location that is simply amazing, right across from the monastery, and is a central spot with a view of the Abbey. The rooms are quite basic given the expensive rates due to the exchange rate, and the temperature was too cold for comfort at 63 degrees F. The service provided was consistently pleasant and very welcoming, making our stay enjoyable. The dining options had some high points like great breads and good spreads but lacked hot options and variety in fruits.
