Great service, great location”

Right in the square opposite the central train station, surrounded by bars and cafes. City Inn is the cheaper hotel within Hotel Manzo. Situated to the rear of the main hotel, but same facilities, check in and bar. Reception staff are super friendly, was upgraded to a double room which was spacious and spotless. Will stay again!

This hotel is located within another building, but then on the back-side. The entrance is shared, which is something to keep in mind when looking for the place. It was a nice, cosy and basic room for a good price to Swiss standards. Location is right next to the station and 10minute walk to the city centre. Around the corner is a nice food market place. #travelroots_nl

Very basic hotel at best”

Very small room with a very old and dirty carpet. Everything in the room feels very old and used/abused. Bed was OK, but pillows were very flimsy. Bathroom also in the smaller side. Was barely any room between toilet and the wall. For a $100/night or so you should be able to get something better. The location however was great, especially if you come and go by train.

Had to climb stairs with luggage”

The advantage is the proximity to the train station and the tram station is in front of Hotel Euler where it's link internally from Hotel City Inn. I was given a room on the 3rd floor (top floor), with no lift access. Had to carry my luggage and climbed the stairs. I visited in early June and it's quite hot so I needed to on the aircon, unfortunately, the aircon in the room is very noisy.
