Pros:

The sea view room is wonderful and also the breakfast. There were different food items on different days and the selection was satisfactory. Also, it is very family and pet friendly with friendly staff.

Cons:

The mattress needs changing, it was sagging and was very uncomfortable!

Een hotel met potentie op een toplocatie
Pros:

De locatie is top

Cons:

Het hotel is zijn ‘ziel’ kwijt. Voor 4 sterren verwacht je meer uitstraling. Het is schoon maar daar is alles mee gezegd. Een stylist uitnodigen zou al heel wat helpen. Het ontbijt is droevig.

Parfait pour quelques jours à profiter des atouts de la côte nord
Pros:

Bien situé sur le front de mer et proche plusieurs très bons restaurants
, jolie vue sur la mer , chambre spacieuse comfortable et fonctionnelle
Le service autour de la piscine rooftop
L accueil
Le petit déjeuner

Cons:

Manque un peu de charme au niveau décoration
Le rooftop mériterait une légère rénovation et mise au goûts du jour

Pros:

Fabulous position overlooking the harbour. Large bright, sunny room with balcony, serviced daily.

Cons:

Very small bathroom. Impossible to keep water contained when showering - shower over narrow bath, no curtain or screen so everything gets wet! Hotel is very tired, in need of general maintenance. Loose tiles, old slow lifts, worn decor. Buffet breakfast is of a mediocre standard.

Wonderful, Old World Elegance. Felt like in South of France!!
Pros:

The location, the size of the room, the cleanliness & "old world" kind of elegance & atmosphere. The WONDERFUL staff. Decor very "provencal" blue & white in the bedroom

Cons:

Just the towels in the bathrooms - a bit worn & thin. Could be upgraded to newer & more fluffy.

The rooftop pool was quite small. Whole area could be made more inviting. I know it just re-opened after maintenance on it so maybe that's why a bit bare.

Oke hotel
Pros:

De omgeving is mooi, veel restaurants in de buurt. Wel een auto nodig om iets verder te kunnen.
Hotel is prima, kamer goed, alles wat je nodig hebt aanwezig. Ontbijt was prima.
Onder het hotel zit Candy Cafe, daar hebben ze heerlijke koffie en vanaf terras kijk je op het haventje.

Cons:

Bed lag niet lekker, we voelde de springveren in je rug. Zeer kleine badkamer en zo ook het balkon. Wij zaten aan de achterkant van het hotel, uitzicht was voor ons een nauw straatje. Aan de voorkant kijk je op de haven

Relaxing stay
Pros:

The hotel is very clean. What I like best is its location near the sea. The view from our room was wonderful. Also it is located very near to some very good restaurants and cafeterias.. The breakfast was very good especially the cassatella which was exceptional. Pastizzi on a Sunday were an add on which were amazing.

Cons:

The hotel can have an upgrade especially in the rooms. The curtains need to be changed because in our room they were torn. But they were changed the morning after we made the complaint. Some accessories in the bathroom need some refurbishment. Also the hotel doesn't have a lounge with a bar where one can enjoy a drink or a hot drink.

Pros:

Great location. Nice staff.

Cons:

Pool wasn't open again. Went last year and it wasn't open then either. It's advertised with a pool but the last two years I've been, it's been closed.
Going to try somewhere different next year.
