What guests think

Hotel The Lord draws mixed feedback, with many travelers praising its unbeatable location steps from the main train station and easy access to trams, while frequent comments flag significant train noise and generally basic, compact rooms.

Several guests appreciated friendly, helpful hosts. Common drawbacks include limited staff presence at times, no elevator, very small sinks, and missing in-room amenities such as tea makers or toiletries. Cleanliness reports are mixed, and breakfast can be inconsistent; some enjoyed a good spread, while others found it unavailable or depleted. Best for short, no-frills stays if train noise will not bother you.

Albergo semplice, vicinissimo alla stazione, si sentivano treni, ma di notte praticamente niente. Il letto Non veniva fatto. I "proprietari" 2 uomini erano cortesi, mi portavano la valigia nella camera senza ascensore. La mattina loro non c'erano. Il buon prezzo era adeguato. Il lavandino era miniminuscolo. Per turismo prenderei una camera più vicina al centro turistico.

Very good access to the station, however staff did not speak English so it was hard to communicate. No elevator, so keep in mind if you have a heavy luggage. The sink in the room was so miniature, that it was hard to even wash the face. On the positive side, there are public rental bikes parking spots nearby, so very convenient to ride somewhere if the destination is not too far. There was a weird smell in the lobby, but in the room it was okay.

Very well located for the Train Station and the trams. Friendly and helpful hosts. Hotel was very clean and well maintained. Room not quite as described, no tea/ coffee making facilities as stated. Was meant to be a Deluxe room with a separate seating area. There was one comfortable chair squeezed in beside the bed. This wasn't too important for us but just to make others aware of it. Perhaps we were put in a standard room by mistake but it was front facing so preferred to stay there rather than chance being in a rear facing room which I guessed may be a bit noisy from the trains. Breakfast was included in the price but we were told there was no breakfast on our first morning so he deducted that from our bill. Although this sounds a bit negative we enjoyed our stay there and found It good value for our 3 nights and I would return again.

Service was deplorable, receptionist was rude and acted as if I he was doing me a favor the whole two minutes he bothered talking to me, explained I had a back condition and couldn't take all of my luggage up the two flights of stairs, more attitude! He begrudgingly put my case in the dining room and didn't even offer to help. Thought the location would be a saving grace but I would rather stay downtown to avoid this hotel.

Our stay was okay, but there were a few issues. The carpet in the room seemed dirty, and the ventilator didn’t work well, so the room stayed humid after showering. The sink was quite small, and soundproofing was lacking—we could hear people talking in the hallway at night. We also noticed some stains on the bedsheet, and the passing trains made it hard to fall asleep. Overall, the location is convenient, but the room could use some improvements for comfort.

It is an inn rather than a hotel. Good for business trips, but not for travel. The whole place is old and cramped anyway. I stayed there on a trip with my mother, but it was so small room that it was impossible to open two suitcases. The shelves near the ceiling of the room I stayed in were used for storage and had something on them covered with a cloth. It made me feel like I was staying in a warehouse. The curtains were tattered and had holes in them. It was cleaned properly for being old, but I would not recommend it.

Very nice staff. I would, however, ask in advance if your room faces the train tracks. A steadily active train track was about 50 feet from my window. It was an ongoing choice between quiet and fresh air. It felt perfectly safe, though, and you can't beat the proximity to the main train station.
