Sehr schönes, veganes Hotel am Stadtrand von Pitlorchy. In wenigen Minuten ist man von dort aus in die Innenstadt gelaufen. Leider wurde unsere Reservierung fürs Abendessen kurzfristig storniert. Hierfür haben wir grundsätzlich Verständnis, aber wir sind wegen des Dinners dorthin gereist und haben dieses Hotel gebucht. Hierfür hätte man eine Entschädigung irgendeiner Art erwarten können, aber mehr als ein "Tut uns leid, aber wir müssen die Reservierung stornieren" haben wir nicht erhalten. Auch auf die Nachfrage nach einer alternativen Empfehlung kam nicht viel. Das Hotel ist sehr süß und schön eingerichtet. Im Zimmer gibt es Kaffee und Tee und im Kühlschrank auf dem Flur pflanzliche Milch. Die Zimmer ansich sind wirklich sehr klein, ebenso das anschließende Badezimmer. Die Heizung hat nachts nicht funktioniert bei 2 Grad und uns war ziemlich kalt außerhalb der sehr warmen und kuscheligen Decke. Insgesamt waren wir enttäuscht, wir hatten uns sehr auf den Aufenthalt gefreut. Aus diesem Grund haben wir uns dann auch entschieden andernorts zu frühstücken.
