A truly exceptional stay, from organising a room for us to use as we’d arrived before check in time, to wonderful restaurant service, delicious room service and truly delightful staff - they couldn’t have done more to ensure a great stay. Gym facilities and an excellent location add to the enormous appeal.

The staff were exceptionally helpful, from their general professionalism and courteousness to helping us find amazing local places to eat. And I also need to mention how clean our rooms were every single day, the housekeeping staff thoroughly cleaned and supplied the room perfectly, I think the hotel itself, the physical aspects are fine, but what makes the property special are the well trained and professional and friendly staff.
