The Palace-Bellevue dates from late 19th Century so has lots of character,with chandeliers and marble pillars in reception and dining areas.Food is quite good,reasonable choice,however dining room at evening meal became very crowded,queues at opening time and difficult to find a table which was not reserved.As we were the sole British guests during our stay,the vast majority seemingly from Germany,Austria...
