Impressive 100 year old hotel sitting on top of the hill. Very good value, clean and great staff. However, walls were thin, my neighbour turned on their tv at 05:45am every morning and when they ran their bath it sounded like roadworks with the pipes vibrating. Great value though and Staff were pleasant and very helpful.

Friendly staff but dated hotel

Check in staff was amazing. We got in later than expected but was accommodation for the silly hour of arrival. Room 2 was damp smelling like a wet dog. Bed could do with a new mattress. The room was run down and dusty around the floor.

Great place for taking your dog lots of walks nearby. Even a separate dinning room that you can take your pet into when at breakfast. Great views over the harbour.The only downside would be the evening dinner menu could be a bit more exciting and maybe a specials choice so as not the same menu each night.
