Nice spot to stay in
Lovely hotel in the lower heart of the city. Little bit of a walk to get to but on a street with loads of restaurants and bars. Actually quite quiet not a lot of outside noise. The restaurant in the hotel was only serving breakfast which we didn't have. But I'm sure when its fully functioning will be great

Fantastic hotel, location and staff.
I have no complaints at all regarding this hotel. The location was perfect for us in relation to the activities we had planned plus we like 'old town' areas and this certainly met the bill. If anything the restaurant wasn't open and apparently this has been the case since Covid. The location meant this was not a problem as there are plenty of places to go for a drink or a meal. We would definitely return to this hotel.
