This is a stunning hotel and probably the nicest hotel I've ever stayed in. The decor is amazing, everywhere is spotless, the staff are friendly and couldn't be more helpful. There is something about the smaller hotels which for me gives them the edge on larger establishments. I can't wait to go back again.
