We had a lovely relaxing one night stay, the room was well equipped, quiet, the bed comfortable and we had a really nice evening meal and breakfast, good menu choices for both too; my partner has complex allergies and the waiting staff were very respectful of the potential risks there, including remembering them at breakfast the next morning (same waitress) A++

This is a lovely hotel full of character and in a fantastic location right in the centre of town. Comfortable and clean with some lovely touches in the rooms like dressing gowns, coffee machines and complimentary toiletries etc... A separate restaurant and bar which served a good selection of drinks and we didn't have a evening meal but the breakfast was outstanding. The best thing going for this hotel was the staff who were outstanding with their help and service. A particular mention goes to a young woman called Esti who couldn't do enough for us and nothing was too much trouble for her and her welcoming smile was a constant feature. Well done to everyone working there. I would definitely recommend a visit.
