The hotel was absolutely amazing! The rooms were beautiful, comfortable, and spotless clean, providing a silent and perfect night's sleep. The service was exceptionally helpful and the staff were friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. The location was perfect, sitting on the edge of everything you'd want to walk to in town and close to many excellent restaurants and pubs. The dining experience was lovely with a great choice of dishes. Overall, a top-notch stay with great value for money.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were very comfortable with lots of small touches like fresh fruit and area guides. Even with the thermostat shut off and the interior window open, the room was generous, although it lacked the finishing you'd expect from a more expensive room. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were large, and the amenities were nice.
