This secret hotel has a passion for healthy living, and offers an amazing gym and gives you the option of renting a bicycle form the reception (you’ll also get maps and tips for the best routes).
The sauna in this place is to die for! It was a viewing terrace in the observation tower way up at the 7th floor, it offers the greatest view you can imagine and can house up to 14 people. We recommend you book the sauna in advance.
The standard rooms are comfortable, have wooden floors, showers or a bathtub. All standard rooms are equipped with a safe deposit, hairdryer, wireless internet, plasma TV and phone. You can choose between a twin bed and a queen size bed. The superior rooms have everything the standard ones do, but also a balcony or a kitchenette. All superior rooms have a sofa bed and a queen size bed. If you decide to bring your entire family, you can get one of the family superior plus rooms – all have king size beds plus an extra bed and can accommodate two adults and two children. If you are a private person who likes to relax in style you can book a superior plus room – some have a private sauna. At the top of the floor, lies the master suite with everything you could ever desire from a hotel room – everything the regular rooms have plus a private sauna, dining table for 8 persons, a kitchenette and a king size bed.
