Lovely quirky building, parking available on site our room was just perfect, shame we couldn’t enjoy the balcony …. Blooming weather!! Great breakfast with lots of choice, didn’t try the swimming pool as had to book and we weren’t there long enough. Really close to all the shops, restaurants and beaches - only slight bit of trickiness are the steep hills, but that’s only because I’m unfit!! Will definitely return.

Good location for what we wanted. The place has character with squeaky floors and lopsided doors which we prefer ,rather than a surgical,zero personality premiere inn. Staff were helpful and friendly.

We loved it! Large part of the building was a really old property from the details (1601) but everything was well preserved and the room had all modern quality facilities. It was in a lovely position, central but really close to the beach - tasty inhouse food at the bar area and the breakfast was the best (choice and quality). One of the best places we have ever stayed.

It was a lovely stay, the syaff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was amazing. We loved having the pool, jacuzzi and sauna access as well. And they let us check in early, which was a huge help as we were attending a wedding.

We found this hotel fairly average which was disappointing as we paid a luxury price. The room and bathroom seemed recently decorated but lacked some features which we were expecting such as bathrobes, a fridge and a safe. Dinners were fine but the breakfast was underwhelming. No hot milk for the coffee, golden shred was the choice for marmalade and once the pastries were gone they were not renewed. Overall not very impressive.

We were not aware when we booked that our room would not be in the main hotel. The room was small, airless and because we were in a courtyard we had to keep the curtains closed. The room was very basic, the shower pathetic and when we asked for mugs we were told the Hotel doesn't do mugs! Great food and staff but disappointing accommodation.
