The Astoria is a historic hotel dating to 1935, and is a listed historic building.
As such it is not a modern hotel with modern luxury and design features. If you can look beyond this then you'll enjoy the Astoria. If not look elsewhere.
The location is perfect, right next to the central station - it was built for the railway for conductors to stay in. It has some art deco features as a result. It's location does mean there is some external noise at night; the windows are fine and ear plugs are provided.
Our room - standard double - was fine. Small due to age, and the listed features do show their age. The bathroom was fine but again features are of their time.
The included buffer breakfast is fine - sausage, eggs, beans, cold meat & cheese, pancakes, pastries etc. - and served in the original dining room.
In summary.....it's fine, but don't expect modern luxury or design.
