Rooms were very small, even by European standards. Problem with room cooling. Had to be moved to different room on second day. Breakfast is very good. Did not try the main hotel restaurant.

I was on business when staying here. Although wifi access is provided for free, the signal in my room was weak. Room is clean, moderately updated, modern feel, but small. Shower is in a different side room than toilet. No place to put luggage except on floor. Easy walk to opera and opera metro and shopping area, but immediate vicinity... More

My girlfriend and I stayed for one night in a executive room. We were being offered to upgrade, and was shown a deluxe room and a suite. Those rooms looked nice as well, but really - if you have a nice bed, a sofa, bathroom and toilet, you don't need much more. Especially not for one night. Also, comparing the... More

my personal experience at Banke has been an horrible one. Dark and small rooms, long waiting que for check in, difficult to order food in the room as they do not answer at the room service number and last but not least very noisy rooms. If you consider this a 4star hotel you are proably wrong, especially for the price... More

Stayed in the Banke hotel. Nice outside building and impressive lobby. For the rest not worth returning. Staff is spanish and has difficulties in english or french. Rooms are extremely small and not clean at all. Rooms are very expensive !!! A lot of noise from people in corridor and elevators. And the best joke was that the concierge made... More
