Good views from Lakeside rooms, easy walking distance to town attractions.
Pros:

Location is within walking distance albeit uphill on your return from shops, restaurants and cafes. Our room had lakeside views which was a bonus.

Cons:

There is no complementary parking for guests, therefore you have to park on the street which can be problematic especially in high season.

Pros:

Great staff. Great surroundings and location. Enjoyed the spa pools

Cons:

Bit of a labyrinth trying to get to our rooms. Had to use more than one lift. Luckily the staff are amazing and will show you around. But still a fus when you have children and shopping
