Great Hotel
Pros:

My husband and I stayed here for four nights. The location is perfect for access to restaurants and all the sights in this area. We appreciated help from the front desk for all our questions. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast at the hotel. Our room felt private and quiet. We appreciated the curtains that made the room dark (helpful for sleeping). Beds were comfortable. There is no onsite parking, but there are options nearby. We would stay here again.

Excellent service and meals
Pros:

The best service we have ever experienced, at a table for seven people for dinner tonight. Brendan was just brilliant, along with all other staff we encountered. Meals and drinks were brought out promptly, and the table service was outstanding. All of the meals were very good. Highly recommended.

Overall we were very pleased and wouldn’t hesitate on staying again
Pros:

The quietness, the cleanliness and the comfort.

Cons:

The aircon didn’t seem to cool the room, had it set at 19° but still felt quite warm. Some bottled water in the room would have been great.

Great location and beautiful property
Pros:

The hotel is beautiful and our room was very nice. The staff were extremely friendly.

The location was perfect. Tons of shops, pubs and restaurants nearby. Right across the street was a horse carriage that was well worth the tour. It was about 50 minutes long and was very nice.

No on sight parking but there was a car park (parking garage) within a few minutes walk

Breakfast was great
