Brass Lantern Inn

8/10 Good

"Very good staff"

Hotel Pippa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful boutique hotel, great location, very friendly and warm staff. The hotel was spotlessly clean. The continental breakfast was a high standard. I hadn’t realised that the room I booked was the smallest in the hotel, and similar to a Manhattan Studio size. It was compact and very well laid out. It was great for one night, possibly too small if staying a few nights. Not sure if it wasn’t clear from the description on the website of how small it was, but just worth checking the room type of you need something a little bigger."

Seven Sea Street Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and rooms were nice and staff was very nice"
