What an absolutely fantastic hotel. Service was phenominal throughout, very attentive to our needs. We had a full tour of the grounds and our room on check in which was a very nice touch. We arrived early on check in day, and were able to leave our bags which had been put into the room by check in. The room was fantastic, nice and spacious with a lovely terrace. We spent a few afternoons by the pool too which was gorgeous, created a little escape from the bustling city below. 100% reccommend and hope to be back in the future.

When I arrived later than expected, Victoria was so helpful; and the next morning she even helped me with my bags, despite being told that it was OK. Great place; I’d definitely stay again. It was clean, tidy & comfortable.

Perfect 3 day stay

Hotel was all you needed for a 3 day trip. 10 minute walk to main promenade. Staff were very helpful at all times. Delux double room was a good size(room 35), although no terrace which was a disappointment. There was biscuits, cake and fruit upplied everyday which was lovely. We were given a small bottle of wine on our last night to enjoy before heading out. Plung pool at rear was perfect for a quick dip yo cool off. Thanks to all for a lovely stay
