“The location inside the cathedral grounds offers both incredible views and remarkably quiet surroundings; plus, the gated access adds an appreciated layer of security. I was especially impressed by the high-quality breakfast and the direct access to cathedral tours. For a visit centered on history and peaceful contemplation, it's an ideal base.”
