Excellent hotel right in the center of the CBD. The staff are attentive, friendly and customer oriented. The location is within walking distance of the wharf, shopping and many restaurants. The breakfast buffet was a real treat as well as well as the comfortable beds and views from the rooms. We would highly recommend a stay.
