Vienna House by Wyndham Sonne Rostock
A lovely hotel - above expectations and very good value for money. The rooms were clean and spacious, the breakfast was good (especially the loose tea selection). The hotel was generally of a high standard and the staff were very attentive. I would recommend and return.
