"A lovely place to stay no doubt. We had a comfortable 3 nights stay. The staff were lovely. The location was amazing. The rooms were a bit small. We did have a cotbed but it could still be a bit bigger for the kind of hotel it is. The mattress were a bit on the harder side for our liking but it depends on what you are used to. The hotel was a bit too hot for the weather. We had to keep our window open slighly and turn off the room heating completely but it was still a bit hot as the lobby was...

Breakfast was a first class buffet. Everything seemed to be cooked well, i.e. fried egg yokes were still runny, bacon was not over cooked as is often the case, tomatoes were still solid, not overcooked. Unfortunately the fire alarm went off three times during our stay. All false alarms, one at 06.00 in the morning. There really...
