Excellent place

Arrived in the evening to the soundtrack of frogs! Fortunately the noise is not intrusive. The reception and other staff were excellent, welcoming without hovering.The room was as described. The air-conditioning worked and took away the heat efficiently. The breakfast selection was great and catered for most palates Not everything was excellent. The bathroom taps were loose and the extractor fan was somewhat noisy.

This was not my first visit to the Bronte. After the first night in the hotel, many of the long time employees recognized me -- and said, "Welcome Back." How lovely that was. It felt like coming home.
