Great weekend break
We’ve just enjoyed a fabulous weekend break at this excellent hotel. From the moment we arrived the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, nicely decorated and well equipped. We enjoyed continental breakfast each morning and it was very reasonably priced. The location is excellent, very central. Would definitely stay here again.
