What a hotel. I had unfortunate circumstances for being at the hotel(flight cancelled etc) however the place was rather beautiful. Lovely decor in all areas, with a really cool 'fire pit' in the lobby. The bar had a school of stainless steel fish around it too. The room was lovely and quiet also. One downside was that it was about a 10 minute walk (in the snow) to get to the nearest metro stop to take you into the centre, but it was only a short jaunt once at the metro. The staff were great and helpful in such a busy time. At the evening buffet I did have to request that a vegan meal was made but what was provided was a really great pasta with a variety of veg and a tomato based sauce. They also have a small shop in the hotel, it is however quite expensive.
