Attractive facilities and generous breakfast hours till mid-morning! The coffee, fruit, cheeses, cereals, tomatoes and cucumbers were plentiful and good. We passed on the overcooked eggs and had the lively thick Greek yogurt instead. Staff was friendly, welcoming and helpful and the Old Town location near restaurants, museums, shopping and the Fortezza was perfect.

Nice location. Nice pool area. Rooms were very spacious and comfortable. Would stay here again when we return to this area.

New and modern, at the edge of the old city. The staff is excellent and very friendly. It is a family hotel and all the staff becomes friends with you and your family becomes their family. The pool is very surreal surrounded by old buildings in the center of the hotel. The bar and the cafe have great prices and practically you don’t have to leave the hotel, but leave it since it is so close to the city.

The staff were helpful and friendly and the breakfast buffet was excellent. Loved the location to alll the sights and the harbour.

Everything especially the hospitality and the kindness from the staff

food was great,and the staff very friendly and helpful.so close to the shops and lovely cheap restaurants. the hotel itself is absolutely beautiful in all aspects with side rooms to relax and a fully stocked bar the shops are to die for and the waterfront is a treasure. 5 minutes walk to the fortress and the bus terminal. you can get buses to most places from here

Great location in the middle of the old town, close to excellent restaurants, the castle and the port. This is our second visit to the hotel and would recommend it.

Fantastic location.. friendly staff .. great facilities..

Breakfast very good Good location very friendly staff

Very nice hotel and very good location, close to old town and beach.
