Make online arrangements for airport transfers. Do not let the hotel staff trick you into taking taxi and bargain for the fare. It's a hassle!

We were very happy with our stay.

We were very happy with our stay. Initially we were allocated a room that we were not that happy with so without any fuss we were moved to the one overlooking the harbour that we had booked and it was super. Staff were very obliging

Excellent location. Lovely views from rooftop restaurant. The only downside was the heater in my room was not working. Luckily there was a portable heater in the closet.

This is an oldish hotel inside

This is an oldish hotel inside but despite that, the room was very clean and comfortable. I wasn't aware of noise from the street despite my room being on the street side. The restaurant view is fabulous and the food was excellent. The stand-out experience was the fantastic service. Nothing was too much trouble throughout my stay, and they even packed all the bags into the car before we got downstairs. 10/10 for customer service all the way.
