Excellent Stay, Art, Comfort, and Great Service!
warm welcome beautiful view
The staff welcomed me warmly and remained helpful throughout my stay I especially appreciated the quiet garden-facing room and its beautiful view from the window. The hotel featured an intriguing modern art collection that I admired. I also enjoyed a pleasant drink in the hotel bar after a long day.
My room's shower had temperature control issues I struggled to find a comfortable setting as it shifted between ice-cold and scalding hot temperatures, a fix is needed

friendly staff delicious breakfast stocked whisky small room old facilities difficult window
The staff were really friendly and helpful. They even knew it was our wedding anniversary. we had a bottle of prosecco in our room courtesy of the hotel manager. breakfast was very generous in portion size and tasted delicious, it felt so special. also, there was a well stocked whisky bar.
The room was small, it had a single bed. a tiny desk filled the room space. It felt quite cramped. the facilities were old and the window was not easy to open or close, it was a struggle!
