A luxury apartment this was not. We arrived and the en suite smelled like sewer. The bath needed some explaining and the apartment had no guide just a qr code for an app that didn’t exist. The pans in the kitchen didn’t work with the hob and the coffee supplied was the weakest and worst of the espresso collection. Housekeeping (if they did visit) always came at 4pm which was extremely unhelpful for a family with young kids who tried to stay out for the morning and early afternoon. The heating didn’t work in one of the rooms and needed to be sorted and everything was in various levels of disrepair. While some things did get sorted after we mentioned it, the sewer smell never went away (something they almost certainly know about with the amount of scent diffusers placed in that room. The bed in the en-suite was horribly uncomfortable and had a footboard?! It has been a long time since I’ve been in a hotel or accommodation with a footboard. The bed was essentially too short for my husband. We wouldn’t recommend it to friends and won’t be returning but unfortunately have had to learn the hard way that this was not ‘luxury apartment’.

We have a perfect stay at The Rutland Hotel & Apartments. The staff is so friendly and attentive. Our room has a view of the Castle and it is just gorgeous at night when the lights lit up the Castle. Even though we are on the second floor with a view of the streets, the room is very quiet. Bed and shower are very comfortable. The room is really clean. Even though the elevator does not reach the 3rd floor, staff can deliver luggage to the room. It's about a 15 minute walk from the Old Town which is an easy walk without the noise and crowd that one experiences in the Old Town. We truly enjoy our stay.
