What guests loved the most

“Flaky Danish pastries and a hot breakfast excellent service”

, United Kingdom

“Room was Cousy and good value for money. Sadly didn’t try the breakfast as had to leave during the night”

, United Kingdom

“The helpful staff and their professionalism always appearing available to assist whenever possible.”

, Gibraltar

“The staff at the hotel were lovely but the room was very shabby. Old rust/ mould residue around panel on wall in bathroom, orange limescale on/in shower head and a huge chip out of the enamel in the bath. Feel that this room, on a room only basis was not good value at £205 for 2 nights - I have stayed in lower grade hotels with better maintained rooms. Very disappointing.”
