What guests say
9.3 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 117 guest reviews
Hotel Emma earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment, with guests consistently singling out its exceptional, attentive staff and stunning historic design as standout strengths. Minor but recurring frustrations include the lack of in-room coffee facilities, difficulty securing a table at the on-site restaurant Supper, the absence of adult-only spaces, and some nighttime noise. For most guests, these are minor trade-offs against what many describe as a genuine five-star experience.
