Good value, odd but actually great location
Slightly odd location, but actually very convenient. Excellent staff. Comfortable room, but the whole hotel is feeling a little old and needs to be refreshed
Had a fabulous stay, the hotel was really excellent, and the staff are superb, great garage parking for the motorbike, and a short distance to many great bars and restaurants highly recommended
Art Hotel was in a good location great views over the port from room.
Very good breakfast with plenty of choice.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Comfortable room
Location: great for us, just few minutes walk to the main area, quiet, safe, no issues
Staff: very helpful with recommendations, booking a restaurant etx. Really v polite
Room: we had one with sea view and loved it
Breakfast: we didn’t have every day but selection was good for is
Nice hotel, stylish decor, large room, very comfortable bed and nice friendly staff. Slightly strange location in a residential district but close to good bars and restaurants. Good breakfast.
Really convenient to get to main tourist area. Staff difficult to find at Reception on several occasions. If you’ve got a car make sure you book a parking spot.
This hotel is in a quiet area just a short walk from the many shops, bars and restaurants in the old town and the seafront.
Our room was large with a very comfortable bed and was very clean. The staff were helpful and friendly, the breakfast was fresh and plentiful with great coffee.
I would definitely stay again.
Fantastic hotel, individual style, different from boring corporate hotels.
Room was lovely with a fantastic view of the bay. Huge balcony. Good breakfast

Liked: Staff & service
I liked the front desk staff. If not them we would cancel our reservation and go to the other hotel. Location and room sizes were shocking, breakfast very limited. Preserved fruit served in the summer, etc
Lovely little hotel. Perfect for nice evening walks as it’s super close to anything you need. Room was clean and taken care of. Only downside was the AC is it didn’t work too well.
Although tucked out of the way, the hotel was quite close to the city centre and easily walkable via street escalators. Our room had an enormous balcony with a fabulous view.
The check-in was friendly and the staff were always happy to see us. The room was comfortable. We liked the stylish and artful decor in the corridors. We didn't have any problems.
