"Very clean, spacious room with super comfortable beds and excellent views. The bathroom was a little tired but perfectly adequate with good water pressure. The restaurant, bar and terrace were delightful spaces and the breakfasts excellent. Lots of choice, even for somebody like me who needs to eat gluten free. The staff were lovely and very helpful. The hotel is situated a c.10 min walk from the start of the main tourist stretch up a slight hill, so might be less convenient for older folk although for others, like ourselves, ideal as the views are amazing. There are a few restaurants just a c.5 min walk away. Didn't use the pool as we were only there 3 nights but it looked very pleasant, situated across the road from the hotel. Would definitely recommend this hotel to others. "

"Such a shame this place is being pulled down, end of an era. Considering this, theyre doing a fantastic job keeping it going in this last couple of months. Really enjoyed our stay, friendly, helpful and made to feel welcome, you cant ask for more than that, the ametities are all still there, we just chose to be out and about with friends and family."
