Michelin Guide
"Formerly an orphanage (1890), now an ultra-trendy hotel."
Concierge
"The St. Elizabeth building (circa 1890) was a Catholic orphanage turned youth hostel until 1999, when it was upgraded into this happy, still-youth-centric hotel."

Standard rooms look like the orphans never moved out and are to be avoided.
Lonely Planet

"Built as the St. Elisabeth Orphanage in 1890, the brick building now houses the Hotel Arena, with its trendy restaurant, café, and nightclub."

"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."

Insight Guides
"There is nowhere like the Lloyd, which cannot be categorised... it’s cheap, it’s pricey, it’s funky, it’s stylish."
Fodor's
"A former holding-area home for immigrants, this bohemian hotel is well suited to its current quirky incarnation as an offbeat design showcase."
