This hotel is absolutely beautiful. The building feels ancient, but I love how well it's been kept up! Classic finishes with all the amenities one would expect from a modern hotel. And the town itself is very much worth visiting as well. I'd recommend this place to anyone!

Love this hotel and have previously given it 5 star but this time our receptionist on arrival did not infuse and make us as welcome as all the others and the Sunday buffet breakfast was a little disappointing in quality. Would still return as it is a lovely place to stay and ideally situated.
