Amazing Service

Reviewed By townie2001

We recently stayed here for a weekend away. From the moment that we booked, the service was exceptional. A personalised email shortly following our booking set the tone, where nothing is a problem for the staff at this hotel. They were so welcoming and went out of their way to make sure that we enjoyed our weekend in their beautiful city. The facilities are modern and sparkly clean, with the beds among the most comfortable that I have experienced in a hotel. The central location is fantastic, we walked everywhere and didn’t hop in the car again until we left. The free onsite car parking is the icing on the cake. We will definitely be back!
