Lovely hotel situated over the road and overlooking the river. The hotel is an older building and the only problem I had was the compact bathroom. The staff were lovely and very helpful. The hotel was kept spotlessly clean and the room serviced daily. Breakfast was continental style with cereals, fruit, pastries,meat, cheese,eggs and bacon.
