“Great hotel in a central location”
A comfortable and modern hotel in a central location. Handy for the city centre, and only a short walk to the sights and parks. Breakfast was good. Staff friendly.

“Too expensive”
Sauna, I was expecting really much better (and larger). The instructions were very poor about how to function with it, to put it oerational to dummys like me

“It would have been an enjoyable stay if the breakfast services had functioned as they should.”
The breakfast was varied and good quality but... It would have been excellent if the offered dishes had been available. At least when I was there around 8 AM, many of the dishes had ended and the trays/pans were empty. I'm particularly referring to the porridge, bacon, and scrambled eggs. I took boiled eggs as substitute for the latter, but I had to chose from only 5 eggs, 2 of which had a broken shell. The porridge, scramble eggs and bacon gradually appeared about 10 min after I had entered the breakfast room. They were tasty but too late to be enjoyed in the right order. I found the delay in the availability of the desired dishes frustrating and disappointing, particularly when Hotel Arina claims to offer an excellent breakfast. That's why I chose Arina even if it cost about 20€ more than other hotels.
