Prachtig hotel !
Pros:

Somerton House is een magnifiek pareltje uit de Victoriaanse tijd met prachtige Belle Epoque-elementen. Je moet echt door het hotel rond kuieren en eens op zoek gaan naar al dat moois. De host van dienst is een uiterst vriendelijke, charmante, behulpzame en hartelijke man die vooral hard zijn best doet om je een aangenaam verblijf te bezorgen. Ook de andere personeelsleden werken zich uit de naad om dit voor je te bereiken. De kamers zijn prachtig ingericht en van alles voorzien. Voor een lekker avondmaal ben je hier aan het juiste adres. De roast mix op de menukaart is zeker een aanrader.

Cons:

Niets !
