Pros:

We love Shipquay hotel and have stayed there several times. Location central to all amenities and attractions. Staff are always very friendly and helpful. We ate in the restaurant and food was amazing as always..Great choice of menu and staff knowledgeable and attentive. Breakfast is freshly cooked and 10/10.
Very comfortable bed.

Cons:

This visit we were in a Delux double room on the 3rd floor. This was a disappointment as previous rooms were a high standard and were 'Delux' as described. This room was small with sloped eve ceiling leaving no room for standard wardrobe or full length mirror. Windows looked out onto walled narrow high veranda.

Nice but perhaps slightly overpriced
Pros:

The breakfast was good, the room was overall comfortable and warm, location excellent, staff very nice.

Cons:

I am not convinced by the value for money - the price was high and there wasn't much of a "boutique" or special feel to the hotel and the decor of the room, despite the price point and the "boutique" label. The soap dispensers in our room were both almost empty and came off the walls.
