ブロンド アーキテクト ホテル(Brondo Architect Hotel)

Top :)

We enjoyed our stay at Brondo Architect Hotel. The hotel is very interesting and the staff was amazing! Damian was very welcoming and always had time to answer questions and good conversations. He even set a table for us on the terrace! Lovely! We would recommend this hotel.

Very quirky but lovely property in an ideal location. We stayed in room 430, which was very spacious and had a terrace. The staff were great and couldn’t have been more attentive.

We had booked a premium double room which is supposed to be 258 sq ft but wasn’t. It didn’t have a proper bathroom. The toilet and sink was a pan elles area at one corner of the room while the shower was a paneled corner at the opposite corner of the room. The small tv (not 32”) was mounted high on the wall, similar to what you see in the hospital. Furnishing consisted of a mid sized Smeg frig, a small desk in an enclosed windowed alcove and an old, rattty looking stool. Breakfast was at a nearby cafe where the staff practically threw the food at you. When I showed friends photos of the room, they couldn’t believe we paid over 300 euros for one night. On the plus side, the room was clean and staff was helpful.

The Hotel Room (630 named Richard) had a very strange food smell. We reported it, twice, to the management but it wasn't fixed during our stay. The room, albeit a standard room was very small, the hotel whilst they claimed they had a bar and a restaurant neither were open during our stay. Not great to be honest

Was expecting more for a 4 star property. Was ok premium room not so good value for money.

The property was under going refurbishment. It was nosey and we were in a room with a lift only part way. It will be a lovely hotel but they should have made us aware that building works were happening and we could have chosen somewhere else. They charge for water which in a high rated accommodation there should be water available and 1€ for a coffee pod!! Tea and coffee should be available as a given.

The hotel has a great central location. The hotel staff are very friendly and professional I had expected two beds. What I got was one bed and one sofa bed. The sofa bed was not particularly comfortable. The main bedroom was quiet according to my brother who slept there. The living room, where the sofa bed was located was far from quiet. You could hear every conversation from the street below. You could hear people walking up the wooden stairs that were immediately outside of my room. You could hear every word spoken by the people in the hotel reception. Breakfast was good.

Location is good, in Old Town, walking distance to many restaurants, waterfront, cathedral, shops. The staff at reception were really friendly & helpful. Lobby is stylish & breakfast seating area was nice & modern. Breakfast was ok, not a great deal of variety but had the basics (no pancakes!), but wasn't well replenished if you weren't there early (I don't mind asking to save extras being wasted but they had run out of a fair bit). I emailed before arrival to ask if they had oat milk & was told they did, but there was only soya which was disappointing. Not much at breakfast for vegans. And my partner found a staple in his cereal (nearly swallowed!), the breakfast staff apologised but no partial refund or anything. We paid for a premium double room, but there wasn't really anything premium about it, reasonably spacious but nothing excessive. I don't think there was even a headboard & decor was quite basic & boring- no character & unattractive fixings. Calling it "Architect" Hotel seemed to be a bit of an excuse not to decorate or finish things properly (bad paint job, poor grouting/sealant, etc., lots of exposed pipework ("rustic" in places but not for bedrooms). Shower area was spacious but shower tray was tiny & penned in, which was a poor use of the space, & the shower head was tiny with poor flow, so showering wasn't comfortable. Bed was thankfully comfy & AC was great. The bar was very expensive. We might return (short stay only) but I wouldn't pay over the odds for it.
