Room was very nice and well put together. Beautiful bathroom. Service and amenities were lacking a bit and the restaurant was ok but wildly overpriced. Staff was courteous but never made us feel comfortable or wanted.

Enjoyed our stay - beautiful location in glorious weather!! ☀️ Just a few extra touches would have made all the difference, such as upgraded amenities in our room (providing tissues, magnifying mirror, better quality toiletries etc) and more varied dining and breakfast menu options, otherwise a fairly standard 4 star hotel. Biggest issue was the creaky floor above our bedroom, sounded like the elephants were having a dance!! All in all however, we would definitely stay there again 😊

Very Faulty Towers…..My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights after arriving from New York in October 2024. I had refrained from reviewing this hotel immediately after my stay, as I Terrible check-in experience with inexperienced staff and unwelcoming manager, who was more inclined to hold a staff meeting than provide
