The room was really comfortable, the wifi worked excellent and the location was perfect because it was close to the old and new town but far enough to get some rest. The staff of the hotel was the best thing, they were always kind with us and they gave us an excellent service!

Lovely Hotel

Lovely room, beautiful building, really nice and attentive staff. Check-in and check-out were a breeze, even though check-in turned out to be right in the middle of the crush of Oasis fans going to the concert down the road. Very grateful for a relaxing stay.
