    Value for money

We had an unforgettable Christmas stay at this hotel. The guest services team, particularly Keeley, ensured all our dining and room requests were taken care of. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had beautiful bathrooms with nice products. The breakfast offered a wide variety of fresh and well-cooked options, including delicious omelettes and pancakes. The spa facilities were top-notch, providing a relaxing experience. The hotel also provided a complimentary shuttle bus service to explore the nearby attractions.

Nothing at all.

We had a fantastic stay! The hotel facilities were top-notch, with clean and spacious rooms that had the comfiest beds. The view from the hotel was absolutely breathtaking, with the sea as a beautiful backdrop. The hotel's breakfast was one of the best we've had, with a wide range of delicious options like fresh pancakes and perfectly poached eggs. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel special and remembered throughout our stay.

It was all superb.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The leisure facilities, including the swimming pool and sauna, were excellent. The breakfast spread was superior with a wide variety of choices. The staff, in all areas of the hotel, were of a very good standard. The housekeeping team was also very helpful when my hair dryer fused. The location, just outside the city, was perfect for anyone wanting to explore this beautiful area. The shuttle bus into town was a great convenience.

Not one thing.
