Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was a great stopover location, perfect for our journey from south to north. The room was spacious and comfortable, but a bit noisy due to its proximity to the entrance and car park. Despite the pillows smelling of smoke, the overall stay was fine.
The hotel is in a lovely location with a great atmosphere, just 20 minutes from the airport. The rooms are beautifully decorated and clean, but the worn-out mattress was a letdown. The service was pleasant and accommodating, with a special birthday drink for my husband. The dining experience was excellent, offering a variety of options cooked specially for us. The outdoor facilities, including play areas and a pond with ducks, are well-maintained and perfect for children.
The hotel's rooms were beautiful and spotless, in a great location with pretty surroundings, but they are above the bar which could be noisy until closing time. Unfortunately, our room was not serviced before the second night, so we had no ability to take breakfast on the second morning prior to our early departure.
