Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Sorell Hotel Rex enjoys a superb location, with tram stops right outside offering quick access to the main train station and city center; some have found it a bit of a walk otherwise. Guests consistently praise the spacious, clean, and well-equipped rooms, some even featuring balconies with great views. A highlight for many is the delicious and varied breakfast, with fresh products, while the Nespresso machine in the room is also a plus.

street noise small elevator

the breakfast buffet offered a decent selection that did the trick each morning

I was somewhat disappointed that the room lacked air conditioning. It got stuffy. opening the window let in street noise i definitely did not expect. plus the small elevator barely fit me and my luggage. It seemed like a sardine can.

tram access breakfast choices nice toiletries

The tram stop was just a minute away on foot, coffee, and croissants. the breakfast options were abundant with many choices. I found it all fresh and tasty. the bathroom included very nice toiletries.

The elevator was small. It was hard for my family to fit in at once with all of our luggage.

a decent stay overall

good choice breakfast options convenient location short tram confusing system self check-in air conditioning lacking fan

the breakfast offered a good choice of options. i found the location convenient, a short tram ride to the city center (it was only a couple of stops).

the self check-in system was a bit confusing to use at first. i also noticed the room lacked air conditioning.
