Elizabeth Mitchell (Mature couple) from Salisbury , England
Guest score: 9.14 / 10 9.14 average,
+ The situation of the hotel. The ease with which we could book it. The politeness and helpfulness of the staff. The breakfast menu was very good, and plenty of it. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the rooms comfortable. A wonderful location.
- We were pleased with all aspects, however we missed being able to make a cup of tea/coffee in our room. However, that is only personal preference.

Friends from Ashburton , Australia
Guest score: 6 / 10 6 average,
+ Our online booking worked. the young man on the desk was really friendly and helpful and went out of his way to assist us.
- The air conditioning overflow pipe dripped into the shower recess all the time - very annoying when trying to sleep. Shabby plastic ill fitting shower door - not in keeping with the standard of the hotel. No service to assist with bags - no lift either. Breakfast options were adequate but could be better - not enough variety in the cereals and fruit. We had great difficulty trying to modify our booking and were unable to alter it online - your site needs a button on the home page which can be clicked to easily access and check or alter bookings.

- Parking in Hilton garage when totally unnecessary - cost of 20€ was not necessary and thus I received no value for this expenditure. Also I would suggest that having the airconditioning system on to circulate the air (even if not refrigerated) would add to the comfort of your guests.

Guest score: 7.33 / 10 7.33 average,
+ The position was wonderful. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. The hotel was clean and pleasant to be in. It was quite romantic also in a quiet way.
- The double bed was 2 singles pushed together. We were on the 3rd floor with a restricted view despite having asked for a view and despite the hotel being quiet with vacancies on the 2nd floor. There was no lift. It was a little cool in the room in the early evening but very hot in the night. The TV was a long way from the bed and not possible to see at such a distance.
