Booked the pike and eel on a last Minuite decision. Very pleasantly surprised on arriving at the hotel to see its position. The door to our “Chalet” overlooked the River/ marina and as I’m into boats what a result. Spent a very pleasant evening on the decking outside the hotel enjoying the atmosphere. Ok the midgies/mosquitoes were annoying, but next time I will be prepared.(Avon skin so soft). Friendly helpful staff and a friendly clientele made the evening very enjoyable. If only we lived closer than 4 hours!! Will defiantly stay again. The Chalet may be basic but the bed was comfortable and the shower refreshing, all we needed. The hotel is friendly and inviting and with the position, what can I say.

Shoddy rooms with paper thin walls.

Reception chaotic with no indication of where to sign in. We stayed in Chalet room. Shower and bath tiling was in need of a clean. Room generally shoddy with mismatched window blinds. One of blinds was incorrectly fitted and so didn't work. Walls paper thin and we were woken a 1 am with neighbours who then chattered for over an hour. Would never stay there again.

Interesting location and a building with character

Overall a good one-night stay and good value for money, in an excellent location. We stayed in Master Swan suite and there was plenty of space. What must be said, however, is that the stairs up to the room are very steep and because it is a building with "character" the floors in the suite were pretty uneven, meaning that care was needed when moving around. It is also the case that the bathroom had a few design "quirks" (like nowhere to put the soap or toothbrushes by the sink) and although soap + shampoo etc were provided there were no tissues. We had dinner in the restaurant and it was fine, ditto breakfast.
