Location,location,location exceptional hotel

So central for everything. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.The Cobbler bar was brilliant with great cocktails and the staff created a great atmosphere and we're very efficient..Just loved this hotel and right in the middle of everything.

Wasn't keen on the layout of the room .Bedroom upstairs, toilet downstairs .Would have been nice to have a bit more of milk etc.for extra cups of tea. Little things but didn't spoil our stay.

Hotel atmospheric and brilliant location. Lovely suite. Bed comfy. Service & breakfast disappointing

Was not offered a menu as others appeared to be. Had booked breakfast in advance. Ordered food with toast which arrived when we had finished our breakfast and after asking for it twice.

Took far too long to check into a 5 star hotel. One person on desk who disappeared for ages. Went to terrace bar until our room was ready. No staff to take order. When he eventually arrived, order was wrong. Reception were going to call us when room was ready - did not happen! Was not a good start.

Great location, by the waterside. Handy to a grocery store, transport and many attractions. Lovely interesting old building that has been modified into a quality hotel. More expensive than some of your chain hotels, but definitely worth the money.

Bathroom was up some stairs from the bedroom area.

Beautiful hotel but not easy for eveyone.

The location and the building are gorgeous. The room was very comfortable and I had a small terrace, directly facing one of the huge chruches. Amazing. The bar is also wonderfula nd the cocktails really great. You have your breakfast there and it is also wonderful as it is full of light, with amazing views and the buffet is truly good.

Getting there is a nightmare if you travel by car and have some luggages. The hotel is in a district that you cannot drive to. It is pedestrian area. So you have to park at 300+400m and walk to the hotel. The roads and paved, wich make it not so easy. And then you have to go upstairs to the hotel as the elevator does not god to the ground floor (very old buolding). It was a true nightmare with my very heavy luggages. But what I found truly distrubing is the fact that the hotel did not propose any help, any solution to help me. Even when I called from down the stairs. I was just told that that was it : pedestrian area and old building. Well. A little help would have been accepted.

Fantastic building and rooms. And would love to stay here again.

The rooms were fantastic, the staff was very nice. And was always clean. The decor was beautiful and I would love to stay here again.

Literally the only thing, we stayed in the letter room. And I know that the bed can be split into two. But yeah you could really feel the divide in the bed when two people are in it. But that was the only room that was left when i booked so they would have mostly likely just accommodated me.

The location, the atmosphere, the fact that every single object was tasteful, the staff was very friendly and helpful. We loved it!
