Great hotel all round. Staff and food both excellent, especially the breakfast. Superb and the staff constantly topping up with freshly cooked items, fresh baked croissants and wonderful choice of cereals and toppings. Our room was spotless and cleaned ready for our second night stay. You could smell the freshness as you walked to your room. Nothing was too much trouble and the staff were friendly and polite, working hard to make pur short stay enjoyable. The price for our room plus free breakfast each morning was very reasonable and free parking too. Well done to the hotel for everything
