    Value for money

Very friendly staff, stunning location, fully-equipped rooms, abundant breakfast. All in all it's neat place, they have neat beds. It is a unique place - 15 minutes' walk to the downtown. Moreover, take a look at inner harbour, set relatively close to the venue. A nice touch is also the savoury beverages in the English bar.

Its breakfast was abundant, we enjoyed the location too

Staff was apologetic, rooms were very specious, property was adorable. The bed was good and it was great having coffee, blackout drapes and clean white sheets. Lovely overall experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed this fabulous hotel and did not want to leave there, totally recommend. The staff was active, the continental breakfast was savoury and the room was warm. Restaurant on site was awesome. Brilliant location - so close to inner harbour. And just 15 min walking to city centre.
