Staff was very accommodating and provided two more pillow and a sheet. Room was too hot and we had no way to cool it. Sleeping with a quilt on was too hot but just a sheet was perfect. The location was ideal being near the harbor and many tourist attractions. The breakfast buffet had everything we could want. Thank you!

The breakfast was delicious. It is conveniently located to walk to many attractions. Our room was quite small, even by European standards, but clean and suitable. The bed was just ok.

Room was very functional, but the glass shower door was loose and did not stay in a position to stop water from leaking on to the bathroom floor. Very friendly staff and one of the most amazing Hotel breakfast buffets I have ever had! Definitely recommend!

the worst room i have even had during my years of travelling around the world, my view was looking into a dirty painted outside wall 3 metres from the window the sky was only visible buy looking up , resulting in no view which made the room dark. Maybe acceptable for a night but I was staying for 7 nights. Great breakfast and friendly staff

Hotel is in a great location. Within walking distance to the harbour and tram station. Staff all very cheery and helpful. Reception area very tidy and functional. Rooms are a bit of a disappointment. Clean but very dark and dated. Maybe would be better with a room that was sun facing. Breakfast was very nice.

Great location, close to everything. Hotel staff very helpful and kind. Comfortable beds and brilliant breakfast. We arrived early and they let us leave our bags so we could go and enjoy our time until check in. We had to check out before breakfast had started they let us pack our own takeaway breakfast which was perfect. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others
