Fabulous hotel
Pros:

We had the most lovely weekend away. The room was lovely spacious, clean, and comfortable. We had everything we needed. It was so peaceful and quiet, which is just what we wanted. Chris was really pleasant and couldn't do enough for you. Breakfast was one of the best I've ever had absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend 100%
We would also recommend the comedy club behind the tower. It was so funny, amazing night.

Highly recommend 👌
Pros:

Chris was very friendly and welcoming on arriva informative with info about local transport anc places to visits. The room that we staved in was excellent so comfortable and cosy with a lovely view of the sea and the illuminations at niaht Rooms are very nicely decorated. Particularly loved the table lamp and seats in the bav window. The shower was exceptionally gooo excellent power and good heat also very handy having a separate toilet from the shower in the room. Bed was very comfy with a nice decent sized TV on the wall perfect for a lying in bed watching a film after a day exploring. Room was also very clean and fresh with a good tea tray Breakfast was delicious with a qood choice and very well cooked. Excellent selection of fruit iuices too. Chris was again very friendly during the breakfast service taking the time to get to know guests. We also enjoyed hearing what others were planning to do and exchanging how thinas had went the dav before at breakfast Loved the location awav from the hustle and bustle but tram stop only about 2 mins from door and the tower stop is about 10 minutes from there
Hiqhly recommend, we are hoping to return next year. I
