Fodor's Review:

A stylish renovation transformed an old, city-center warehouse into a busy restaurant and hotel complex. The dark internal lobby has stone walls and cast-iron pillars, and a homey collection of sofas and armchairs, setting the tone of boho shabby chic that appeals to the hotel's many regular guests. Rooms vary greatly in shape and size; the most coveted ones overlook a tiny courtyard patio with a waterfall cascading down one side. Decoration is unfussy, with muted earth colors, black leatherette reclining chairs, and plain cream walls. Double-glazed windows on the street side guard against traffic noise. The restaurant, Greenes, is renowned for its talented French chef, and is a lively place at night. Pros: central location near bus and train stations; memorable old-world character. Cons: heavy through-traffic outside; decor a bit worn at the edges; limited car parking.
