United States of AmericaThis is a different kind of a stay for the traveler or at least for us. It was a few hotel rooms above a bar. But it was quaint and we liked it and would do it again. The staff could not have been friendlier. and the rooms, although small, have everything the traveler needs, great shower, hair dryer, etc. And for breakfast, which was great, we could order anything desired off their breakfast menu which was perfect for our group of six!!
United States of AmericaWelcomed and greeted straight away and the whole place had a great atmosphere! Came here for my anniversary with my partner and they made it extra special by gifting us two free bottles of Prosecco! Located only 10 minutes away from the city centre and parking is easily accessible from the front. Truly enjoyed our stay at The Sliding Rock Inn and we will most certainly be returning here. 100% recommend staying at this establishment to anybody who loves Good quality for affordable prices!
