Info

Summary of reviewsThe Globales Lord Nelson is a hotel with great facilities, although its maintenance and attention to details could be improved. Despite some guests feeling it is only suited for a 3-star rating, there are positive reviews from others. The food is passable but lacks variety with some guests having experienced repetitive and unappetizing meals. The hotel seems to cater more towards German guests, which can affect the opinions of other nationalities. However, the hotel falls short in terms of value for money and quality expected of a 4-star hotel.
