Charm United Kingdom

The breakfast was really lovely. The view was exceptional The room was lovely. BUT the carpet had lots of stains on it and the bathroom floor needed a scrub. And I am not sure about the kettle in the cupboard thing?? All the staff from the cleaners, waiting staff, barman and the receptionist was great.

Sarah United Kingdom

The views were incredible and the staff were polite and efficient. We chose to pay a little extra and had a view and a balcony. The hotel is a little old but was fine for us. The breakfast was great with plenty of choice for continental followed by table service for English breakfast.
