Great hotel across from the peir with lots of restaurants and bars nearby. Breakfast was great, as usual, but parking is still a bit of a pain. Fortunately with two motorcycles we are able to park hoth in one space, which at this hotel is in the next block and free from 4 pm to 8 am, which worked well for us.

Excellent property but the rooms are a bit small. Great location next to the harbour and perfect to watch the midnight sun over the sea. Stand out thanks and praise to Melissa who helped my wife greatly when she had to make an emergency dental appointment. Thank you very much.

I had great experience at the hotel. I left my jewelry at the hotel after I left. U contacted the staff through and online inquiry form. I thought they wouldn’t reply in time BUT they reply within 24 hrs. The staff was so helpful and flexible by holding onto my item until I return to get it. I retrieved item a week later with no issues. I am definitely will stay here again and recommend this hotel to friends and family.

Very nice but hot room

Very clean room with a wonderful view. The breakfast is very good too. On a warm day, however, the room can be very hot with a large window facing the sun. If they could offer a small fan like other hotels I stayed, it would be greatly appreciated.
