    By lots of food options. However it was all chain restaurants and a little pricy due to location. I did like the Tesco next door to offset this a bit.

    My recent stay at Holiday Inn was phenomenal. The location, cleanliness, and staff, especially Lynsey, were all exceptional. Lynsey's professionalism and helpfulness made our experience truly memorable. I highly recommend Holiday Inn for anyone...

    Great coffee machine, easy Internet access, cheap parking, great location and view to the harbour! The entrance smells great. Make this smell all over the corridor like some hotels. The staff was helpful - the cleaners were also helpful and polite.
