A very enjoyable stay in a well-located hotel with beautiful harbour views, comfortable rooms, and an outstanding breakf
Pros:

A lovely hotel in a prime waterfront location with fantastic views over the harbour. The rooms were comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent with a wide selection of high-quality options.

Cons:

The children’s playroom, featuring a TV and ping pong table, was a great idea but unfortunately was not well maintained during our stay. Broken glass and litter had been left behind by other guests, making it less inviting than it could have been.

zklamání
Pros:

bohatá a výborná snídaně, skvělá poloha v přístavu, skvělí výhled

Cons:

pokoj byl nedostatečně uklizen při příjezdu, plný odpadkový koš po předchozích hostech na stole
další den pokojská sice byla v pokoji kam přinesla ručníky ale to bylo vše, hrnky zůstali špinavé, za příplatek pokoje superior bych čekala víc

zklamání
Pros:

skvělá poloha, nádherná budova, výborná a bohatá snídaně

Cons:

při příchodu na pokoj bylo neuklizeno, pouze převlečné postele, plný odpadkový koš po předešlých hostech byl postaven na stůl, pokojská se omluvila s tím že druhý den bude vše jak má být ale bohužel nic, pouze byl vynešen koš
