Room was in poor condition, especially bathroom. Air conditioning could with updating, either cold or over heating. As a result we got very little sleep. Best thing going for this hotel was the pool. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7d730afe-e282-4e25-ade7-c17d7e89b763-1761134756958.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c576f0bc-dd66-47ea-8e71-2da84bede44c-1761134756952.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c5f2129e-9d38-45c0-b077-bb27ecf0b3b5-1761134755468.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Eric Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leandro Jan 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A must stay Fantastic hotel, very well maintained with “real rooms and real bathrooms”, brick walls and classical furniture.

The guest areas are spacious and the pool beautiful. The only concern we had, the dinner service was a little slow due to large tour groups dining, the staff were under pressure. We would have also appreciated tea/coffee making facilities in our room. We would definitely stay there again. ##### Suzanne Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### thomas May 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities a beautiful classic hotel with history as the first hotel in1862 sits on the top of a historic quarry. food was great breakfast buffet and dinner room was comfortable and had A/C working. ##### thomas Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sue Jul 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Historic sprawling property.
