We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location in the town centre was very convenient, with places of interest within easy walking distance. The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The breakfast staff, especially Anna, were extremely helpful and attentive. The breakfast itself offered a decent selection of items, including a fresh fruit salad, cereals, and a tasty Full English. We were also impressed with the security measures in place when entering the hotel at night.
