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.

I thought it was a very good quiet location. Staff were very freindly and very informative especially daniel! Room had everything you needed loved the daily pastries. The walls were quite thin so could hear a little noise from next door but apart from that was great!

Really nice hotel in a great location. The staff at reception were incredible and their service really made our stay. The room was comfortable and a good size. The pool is deeper than it looks and was a nice touch.

Paula looked after us very well. Our initial room had a sink within The bedroom which is not acceptable to us, but Paula sorted a change for the last two nights. Great location for walking to lots of bars as well as waterfront, but quiet generally.
