Great overnight stay. The restaurant staff was not very personable compared to the front desk staff. The front desk was very helpful and made the check in very simple.

Beautiful hotel in a lovely area of town, excellent choice of foods at breakfast, and despite being a large buffet this was clean and well stocked for the most part. The rate I paid was good value for the level of service, but I notice the price seems to fluctaute hugely from week to week.

Room was clean and comfortable although bathroom a bit cramped. Main issue was noise. The hotel has no air conditioning so if it's warm you need to open a window. This was fine on night one but on night two there was a wedding in the function suite. My room overlooked this and I was unable to sleep well due to music and guests shouting etc outside. Nice hotel but not great in warm weather when there's a function on.
