| Hotel is very European but nice. Comfortable bed but woke up feeling like I was sleeping on a sofa-bed (when you see it, you'll understand). Nice tv. Renovations still going on, woke up to hammering at 8. |
| Places To Eat: |
| Short overnight. Drove past what looked like some nice places on the way in. Cafe attached. Expresso machine in lobby, try a shot of the expresso and it will knock you over. |
| Things To Do: |
| Short overnight. Could be fun in summer. |

| The hotel renovations are almost complete. There really isn't any construction going on the floors, but rather almost all concentrated on the lobby area, so you won't be hearing jack-hammers or other construction equipment at 7am! The hotel is very Euro-modern. A lot different than most hotels we stay at. Not good if you're afraid of heights, as the giant windows in each room extend from floor to ceiling. Each room has a 32" LCD tv on the wall and also has an iHOME (a clock that has an iPod docking station). Free wireless internet. Business center is not done yet. Hotel is about 15 minutes from the airport. Overall, it's a very nice hotel and it's located in a great location. FYI...it gets REALLY REALLY cold in winter, so pack accordingly. |
| Places To Eat: |
| There are lots of local places which you can walk to, just ask the front desk. Otherwise, there is a nice small cafe attached to the hotel right outside that serves breakfast and lunch. Good choices and reasonably priced. |
| Things To Do: |
| There's always something going on, especially if you like winter sports. Tons of winter stuff to do. If you got time, take a cab or bus to the Ice Hotel (yes, hotel made completely out of ice in the winter), etc. If not, just stay around the hotel and explore the city. |

| Renovation is almost complete in the rooms. Didn't get the early wake-up call from the hammer-drill like last time I was there. Front desk expects it to be done sometime in November. |
| Places To Eat: |
| Little coffeehouse attached to the hotel, just outside of the front door. Several places down in front of hotel near the Library, some more places in the "upper town", not to far of a walk away. |
| Things To Do: |
| Some neat old chapels and cathedrals in town if you are into that. Upper town has some neat shops, but the language barrier is quite significant. A lot of people speak English up there, but good luck finding them! |

| Hotel is currently under construction. Contruction begins promptly at 7:30am. You will not be able to sleep through it! Currently drilling in concrete on the 9th floor, which resonates through the entire hotel. If you value your sleep, stay away. |
