I searched for ages for a decent hotel at a fair price with good reviews. As so many others had questionable reviews, i thought the Golden Star might be too good to be true, but in fact it was perfect, a standard room with a great view over the square and the city beyond, large bright period windows, and lovely touches like real keys (!) as well as a good sized fridge, a safe, and all mod cons. And surrounded by the beautiful buildings and parks of the castle’s historical centre. The tram stop is 5 mins down the hill from which you can get anywhere, and there are lots of eating options and small convenience stores all around. At night it was quiet even with the windows open. The breakfasts were sumptuous with lots of choice. I loved it and would definitely recommend it for a few days break.
