Clean, well appointed room. Personable & professional Reception team. Kettle. Good WiFi. Plenty of hot water and towels. Breakfast needed some hot tomatoes or mushrooms. Bit ordinary considering I paid a high NYE price. Centrally located and close to the Ayamonte ferry terminal. A good hotel.

I booked this hotel last minute so I appreciated the accommodation. The pool is very refreshing and the room was very clean, comfortable and quiet. The front desk staff was helpful and friendly. The breakfast the following morning was great too! Lots of fresh food and all very tasty and satisfying. The property is located close to anything you could want… from shopping and dining options to public transportation. Highly recommend!

From the minute we walked into the hotel we felt welcomed. The front desk staff were so friendly and helpful. Our room was spotless and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel is an easy walk from the train station, close to the riverfront, shopping and numerous restaurants. Overall 10/10. Great value for the price. Would definitely recommend.

6/10 Good

Great location, friendly and helpful staff are the positives. We must say a big thank you to the guy at reception for his wine recommendations and putting the heating and football on in the bar.Unfortunately the hotel is dated and in need of modernisation. We also found the rooms to be quite cold, but this was easy rectified using the A/C we also had a problem with ants in our room. Overall we found it to be a bit basic, but based on the room rate it was good value.

Much better than picture suggests!

Lovely hotel. We asked for a room away from traffic noise and were given a 4th floor room at rear of hotel. Not that noise would have been a problem as the hotel does not front onto a busy road as we thought it did. Breakfast was very good, service was excellent, short walk to river, short drive to beach, impressive individual styling on landing of each floor, comfy room with very firm mattress although softer pillows would have been better. Very good value.
Pleasant pool

Great hotel with a central location. I had a misunderstanding about a fee. However, Fransica at the front desk was very professional in explaining how it was overlooked on my part. Great staff and worth returning
