Beautiful, unique hotel
Pros:

This is a beautiful hotel with so much character. It feels truly unique. There are lots of lovely spaces like rooftop gardens and a beautiful patio to relax and enjoy the views. The location is really perfect. Our room was spotlessly clean.

Cons:

Although many reviews mentioned the great staff, we found them a bit distant and not especially helpful. We had asked for a cot for our baby in advance and they had said this was fine, but there wasn't one in our room and they didn't respond to my message about it. We would have really liked a fridge and a coffee machine/kettle in our room. We booked a quadruple room for us and our two children but only got one seat, which meant there was nowhere for us to sit once the kids were asleep.
