Always a pleasant stay, stylish and traditonal. It is a old hotel, so you can hear the creaking floor boards of others, but it is nice..

Doesn’t get more central. Of course old building so has its quirks and indeed charm. Stay top floor which was quiet. Staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast could ask for a bit more but ok. Perfect location for exploring town and hikes (Kingstown and Sandwich).

On arrival we were informed the hotel was under-staffed & our room wouldn't be ready for another hour. Our room & the entire hotel was incredibly hot although thoughtfully a fan was provided in our room. The heating system was outside our room & was very loud. We also had people above us who were running/stamping in their room until gone midnight. We had to ask them to stop. Breakfast was excellent on the first day but the next day we waited 45 minutes for our food to be served & the supplies of juices & croissants was empty for a while. The hotel is very cosy & conveniently situated. It was always busy with a lot of non-residents & service was slow. Extra complimentary supplies were provided immediately upon request by the cleaning staff. All staff were friendly but very busy. It would be good if parking at the hotel could be reserved for residents. We enjoyed our stay but felt the price didn't reflect the value of the service & accommodation. We would rate the hotel 6 out of 10.

Should be better than it is.
We found the stay a bit of a mixed bag. The team were friendly and helpful and the room with a sea view was very nice. But there were a few things that let the place down. The shower was poor, flitting between scolding hot and cold with no power. The dining room was cold and we found the food from breakfast to evening dinner to be of poor quality. The food did not feel very fresh or of great quality for example the berries on the pancakes looked like they were frozen not fresh, the sausage in the cooked breakfast was the quality you would expect from a greasy spoon and the salad served with the steak was a lump of rocket with no dressing. It's a beautiful location and a nice space but we felt that it was probably suffering from being part of a chain and not focussing on having a top chef and great quality, fresh food.
