    The morning meal was very good and delicious with a luxurious treat. The location was magnificent and good, within a close distance from a 19th - century pier. And we were close to local pubs...

    I recently stayed at this luxurious 4-star hotel and was thoroughly impressed with my experience. The location of this place is absolutely stunning, situated on a very steep hill that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding area. The staff here went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The housekeeping service was impeccable, with my room being spotlessly clean and well-maintained. The amenities provided in the room were top-notch, including ironing facilities, heating, and tea and coffee making facilities. The dining table in the room added an extra touch of convenience, allowing me to enjoy my meals in the comfort of my own space. The free Wi-Fi in the rooms was also a great bonus, allowing me to stay connected throughout my stay. the attention to detail and quality of service at this hotel were truly impressive.

    I would definitely recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

    Cozy vibes with a fireplace, will keep you warm even in winter. You can control the temperature thanks to the central heating. Forgot to pack your clothes neatly? No worries, there's an iron in the standard king room. 😊 You won't go hungry as restaurants and pubs are just a stone's throw away from this place.
