A 5 star stay at a 4 star property. I cannot say enough about the quality of service and the ambience of the Nici Hotel. From the valet parking, check in and restaurant staff, everyone was extremely polite and helpful. Nothing was too much and everyone was professional. The property itself is stunning (especially the pool and dining areas) and our room was the perfect size (get one facing the sea, so worth it).
Highly recommend the afternoon tea and continental breakfast (all fresh and...

We had a wonderful stay, a welcoming arrival and any queries we had were dealt with both before our stay and during our stay. There is limited parking at the hotel and involves a bit of tetris parking, however I cannot see how this could be resolved given the location and size of the hotel. The Chocolate Box was one of a few hotels that included some on site parking, there is a paid car park near by as well , you just need to be prepared in advance of the possibility of not getting parked on...

We loved this hotel and its central location. The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the added plus of having air conditioning made our stay even better. The outdoor space was lovely and we enjoyed drinks in the quiet garden in the evening.
The only negative was the breakfast experience. The standard of the food and the selection was very good but the whole dining experience could be improved. The buffet was never fully stocked and we had to wait for food on each of the four mornings...

Was upgraded to a ocean view room for free by the lovely Akshay, he and other staff were brillant looking after us so many thanks too them. Hotel close to the beach so couldn't ask for more, Hotel was nice and clean, Breakfast was brillant too as had Gluten free options. Only negativity i think price is bit steep for a night compare to other hotels but would i stay again in the same hotel again ? Off course 👍

Helpful and friendly staff. Managed to leave my keys in the hotel room after a 4 hour drive back home. Staff managed to post them back to me, much obliged!

Never really write reviews but maybe that goes some way to show how impressed I was. Staff feel as though they care about the place and in a world where customer service in hospitality is struggling it was so refreshing. Will definitely be back next time I have to stay in the area. Food was excellent for the price point.

We stayed for a Graduation which was opposite hotel so very convenient. Chargeable car park at rear of hotel was handy.
Great fresh cooked to order breakfast.
We didn’t eat in the restaurant in evenings but did have a drink in the bar that was nice stylish decorated.
Good choice hotel that’s a short walk into town (although a hill to walk up on way back). Nice rooms . Would stay again infact it’s our second stay here.
