What a find. Located just across from the dockyard and 5 min walk from the gunwarf shopping centre.
First the hotel, when I was looking for a hotel, we wanted something different than the normal hotel stay. We arrived early but the receptionist directed is to the car park, which was discounted.
Next the room, 1st floor overlooking the sea, but also the bus interchange. My first thought this could be a bit noisey, however this was not the case. As the room was higher than the buses, it was quite, even the window open.
The room itself was extremely comfortable with what you would expect to find in a room of this quality. The bathroom was very clean and had a bidet, which some 5 star hotels do not have. No bath, but the shower was a welcome especially after a day visiting the sites. The room was clean and presented to a high standard. Nice touch was the coffee machine and the mirrored furniture was in keeping with the rest of the hotel
The reception is located in the bar, and the is clean and decorated with number of objects which were highly amusing.
The hotel also had lift which was acceptiated especially when arriving and leaving.
Breakfast was good, with a wide range of options even for the fussy eater.
The staff were present, friendly and welcoming, and nothing was too much of a problem
Would we come back again, most differently, a small gem of a hotel that should not be overlooked.
