    Stepping into a bygone era. Historical property with cozy old-fashioned rooms filled with stories. Complimentary breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner served with multiple courses which are delicious. Attentive and charming staff.

    Nothing to be said.

    Located in the heart of the bustling square close to town Centre, it's hard to miss the quaint hotel, hidden behind a small market. the rooms, though a little creaky, are rich in character and have a certain quirkiness that is charming. the staff are friendly and accommodating, always up for a chat in the small market area.

    One drawback is the outdated facilities that may not meet some guests' expectations.

    We had a fantastic stay at this luxurious hotel! The location is absolutely stunning, situated on top of a hill overlooking the main square. It gave us the most breathtaking views of the surroundings. The service here was top-notch, with friendly staff who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The room amenities were excellent, including a cozy sitting area, free toiletries, and an am/fm alarm clock. The dining experience was exceptional, with delicious food prepared by a talented chef. We also enjoyed the leisure facilities and the convenience of having Wi-Fi access throughout our stay.

    We highly recommend this hotel to all.

    The bed was comfortable and the staff was friendly and helpful. the hotel had a good atmosphere and was located in a nice area with plenty of things to do and see nearby. the food was tasty and served promptly.

    The hotel was overpriced for the quality received. the property was old and in need of repairs.
