It is a lovely hotel and the location is unbeatable. 2 issues, but maybe thats if eboookers (amongst other things) that while booking they dont show the option if rooms facing the guggenheim. Even though we booked a premium room had to accept a road side room. The terrace coffee shop opens only buffet breakfast. Although the manager let us have a small a la carte on the terrace. Thanks a lot for that.

Trotz Buchung eines Guggenheim Deluxe ZImmers wurde uns das letzte Zimme am Flurende zugewiesen, dass nur über ein Fenster statt einer Fensterfront verfügt. Kein Twin Bed trotz Wunschäußerung. Upgrade für das zweite gebuchte Einzelzimmer wurde nicht realisiert!
