10/10 Excellent
"Fantastic hotel with outstanding staff situated close to many attractions. Clean, stylish with a great ambience. All reception staff from Zoe who checked us in to Davy who was very helpful with our cases leaving, all staff presented with excellent customer service skills. The pool and gym were also excellent. Will definitely return! "
