Wunderbares Hotel. Eindrücklich wie viel Aufwand in die „Dekoration“ investiert wurde. Man fühlt tatsächlich das ursprüngliche Kraftwerk.

Thank you

Not a five star hotel

Really nice interior in the reseption, but rooms and corridors are outdated. Small pool with very cold water. Hotel restaurant has average food. Breakfast average. Definitely not a five star hotel.
