We had a wonderful stay in a large, beautifully furnished room close to the city center. The on-site staff, including Stu, were friendly and accommodating, making our experience even more enjoyable. The room had modern facilities, high-quality bathroom linen, and comfortable bedding.

Staying at this hotel provided me with a warm welcome from the staff and a spacious, comfortable room. The elegant late 19th-century accommodation was conveniently located near downtown, offering a fantastic European breakfast in a stylish dining room with a garden view. the convenient location allowed for scenic walks along the nearby river.

I thoroughly enjoyed the hotel facilities, especially the elegant late 19th-century ambiance. The stylish dining room, with its open fire and garden view, added to the charm. The breakfast was a pleasant surprise, with a variety of homemade muffins and a delightful continental spread. The staff, particularly Stu at the front counter, were extra friendly and helpful. The location opposite the tree-lined river provided a tranquil setting. It was a lovely touch to see those extra details you expect from a quality B&B.
