Hotel Orion is a lovely art deco building with lots of charme and wonderful staff. Check in and out was very easy, and having a secure carpark for a small fee was really great.
We were able to do laundry for a small fee also. The staff were very accommodating and friendly and always happy to help. The breakfast had a great variety of food and the dining area was also very nice. The walk from the hotel to the city centre is lovely and will only take about 30 minutes.

This is a ‘get what you pay for’ hotel. Rooms are basic and clean, breakfast is good and it is very easy to get in and out by car or to the city center by tram (easier with Google maps for station stops)
I am in love with the front desk staff for so many reasons! Sweet and super helpful they had good ideas and advice on places we wanted to go, how to get there and always ready to hear about our adventures when we returned. It’s like coming home to family at the end of the day:)

We had a lovely stay. The staff were very kind. You can book the pool for a private swim for an hour each day, which was great after exploring the city on foot. Beautiful house in a nice area, close to the train station.
