Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Twin Lions Hotel is appreciated for its convenient location with a bus stop right outside, offering easy access to the city center and the airport. Guests often enjoy the freshly cooked breakfast, especially the eggs made to order. While the hotel is seen as good value for money, some guests have noted that the decor appears a bit dated. The proximity to a park and wooded hills also makes it suitable for nice walks.

Solid stay near the airport

staff communicationcomfortable bedbus stopshot bath
Staff communication was excellent throughout my stay. The room had a comfortable bed. I had a hot bath, which I greatly appreciated. I found bus stops close by (for both the city center and the airport).
The room décor could use some updating, as it seemed a bit old.

The bus stop is located right outside the hotel. This allowed quick access to the city center. Breakfast included freshly cooked eggs and nice toast. The central heating was working well and kept the room warm. Clean sheets and towels were provided daily
The tv in my room did not work. I could hear the tv from the neighboring room through the wall. This was a small inconvenience
