Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The location is simply unbeatable, right on the main square of the medieval town of Ribe, making it super convenient to explore the area. The rooms were cozy and well-equipped, but they did get quite warm even with the windows open. The service was exceptional, with no reservation needed, and I particularly enjoyed the room service and welcome drink. Dining options were a bit limited to mostly cold items with additional charges for hot items, which was a small downside. The facilities were great, especially with pet amenities available for furry friends!
The hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Ribe, with a view of the cathedral from the town square. The rooms are cozy but tend to get very warm even with the windows open. The service is top-notch with thoughtful amenities available for pets. However, the dining options are limited to cold items with just a boiled egg. The location is ideal for exploring all the sights on foot.
The hotel is perfectly situated on the old square facing the cathedral, offering a charming ambiance. The rooms are cozy and inviting, though they tend to get very warm even with the windows open. The service is top-notch with no reservation required and pet amenities available, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Dining options are diverse, but some prices may seem steep. Overall, a lovely hotel with a few minor drawbacks.
