"Everything about the hotel was lovely. The staff were helpful and efficient. The room was very clean and nice, but our view was of another building a few feet away instead of the pretty gardens. Breakfast and dinner were very good. We would recommend staying here. An airport shuttle would have been much appreciated."

"It was a pleasant surprise to be offered champagne upon check-in, excellent in room coffee availability with coffee grinder. There were snacks available in the room as well. It was nice to find a miniature gift candle at our door when we came home from the day out because we had requested Green service that day… (No need to come and clean our room). The location worked out well. The sliding wooden “door”to cover the windows gave a complete black out!"
