Repeated Stay

This is the second time I have stayed at this Hotel in 4 months and 3rd time overall. I will go back again. A walk up the hill from town would shred a few kilos after having ice cream at Patagonia.lol Friendly staff and been a IHG member helps to. Open plan as you walk in is great. Fireplaces going and people around, very nice atmosphere.
