Fort Road Hotel Delivers Style and Comfort

We really enjoyed our stay at the Fort Road Hotel. The room was lovely and the hotel has a great look and feel with beautiful art throughout. Fantastic location near the Turner and lots of great restaurants. The only small downside was not being told much about amenities like bar hours, the rooftop (which was closed), or how breakfast works. Otherwise, everything was great and we’d definitely stay again.

Great boutique style hotel

Tastefully decorated with high quality furnishings and finishes with lovely sustainable led toiletries. Location is great and right near the sea front. Breakfast was full of great quality ingredients. Only downside was that our room was very hot, we walked in and there were two fans on so this is clearly a known issue by the hotel, however it did make it hard to sleep in such heat.
