"Formerly an orphanage (1890), now an ultra-trendy hotel."

"A modern, four-star, 116-room hotel with a trendy restaurant, cafe and nightclub." Full review
"Built as the St. Elisabeth Orphanage in 1890, the brick building now houses the Hotel Arena, with its trendy restaurant, café, and nightclub." Full review
"The restaurant, bar and nightclub are the stars of this former orphanage in a slightly out-of-the-way residential district, so the Arena is ideal for young trendies intent on socialising in situ."
"This place has been thoroughly revamped, transforming a popular hostel into a hip three-star hotel complete with split-level rooms and minimalist decor."
