Batavia Hotel

Der Nachtportier war sehr unfreundliche. Ging an die Grenze zu bedrohlich. Toilettenspülung defekt.

My good-sized room was at the back of the hotel and had a bathroom (shower, no bath) in another connected room. Bed was very comfortable. TV was a reasonable size. My room had a balcony area where I could sit outside with a good view if you like watching pigeons flying around the backs of tall buildings and/or like to smoke (ashtray and chair provided). Plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance, Breakfast was available until 10 am; there was lots of choice but only three hot dishes, a couple more would have been better for me.

I arrived at night, took the lift to my floor (the fifth) and exited the lift into darkness; the area is lit by timed light switches and I did not know the location of the switches so I had a little trouble finding my room even though it was only 2 metres from the lift. In the light of the next day I discovered switches outside every room, it would have been helpful if the staff had told me this on my arrival. Otherwise not much to dislike about the place
