We had a junior suite which had a large balcony and a fantastic panaramic view of the harbour. On arrival we were welcomed and checked in speedily and found our room beautifully presented. Breakfast and eating area very good with lots of choices. Very central to all that happens in P D and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

Property was very clean, good location, attentive staff. We borrowed a towel for the hot springs and were told that it would be 2 euro, but were charged 6 when leaving. Apparently it was per day, even when not having it washed in between. The charge structure could have been clearer. Also, the breakfast could use improvement. The eggs (scrambled and omelet) aren’t seasoned at all. Even just some salt would help. The avocado toast was just bad. I wouldn’t even recognize it as avocado if I didn’t know already. Otherwise, everything was okay.
