Reviews
We loved the dedicated atmosphere, fantastic breakfast, and excellent location.
The hotel is less than 10 minutes from the station and offers a comfortable and quiet stay.
The staff was really helpful and the full English breakfast was delicious.
We also enjoyed the lovely garden where we could relax in the shade.
Luggage storage was available, allowing us to make the most of our last day in this city.
Was all great.
We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The room was clean and had all the necessary amenities. The staff were incredibly friendly and the breakfast was great. The location, right next to one of the main gates to the walled core, made it convenient for us to start our walk around the city walls.
Couldn't fault anything about our stay.
We had a fantastic stay at this hotel just outside the historic walls. The location was perfect for sightseeing and visiting friends in this city. The cleanliness of the hotel was impeccable and the staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast provided was plentiful and delicious.
Everything great.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The staff were warm and friendly, making me feel right at home. The cleanliness of the room was impressive, and the hotel facilities, including the lift and laundry facilities, were a welcome bonus. The location of the hotel was perfect, being just a short walk from the train station and close to the city centre. This allowed me to explore the city easily and enjoy the convenience of nearby dining options. One of the highlights was the breakfast spread, which offered a great selection of vegetarian options and fresh fruit. I also loved having breakfast in the beautiful atrium of this lovely building.
Could not be improved in any way.
