Great Hotel,, Professional & Friendly Reception Staff,,Great Breakfast again with nice Friendly Staff attending your needs in Clean eating area.. Nice little court yard area to sit with coffee after eating,, Lovely room ,, all spotless,& we got one 2nd floor with beautiful view of the Pieassa below,, 5min walk to main attractions,, Just a shame they said they did not receive my room request for twin beds,, even though I have their reply in Hotel . Com messages that their house keeping team have been notified.. Big bed , they did least try with seperate single bedding,,,not to bad,,, our room with a view did compensate for this so not a big issue. Would highly recommend this Charming Hotel 👌👏👏

This is a lovely hotel. The rooms are clean and quiet with nice toiletries in the bathroom. Great breakfast with delicious coffee and cappuccino and a bar w drinks in the evening. Staff was very friendly and extremely responsive. Our last morning we left for an early flight and they gave us bags of food with snacks for breakfast which was very thoughtful. I would recommend!
