My family and I visited the hotel briefly, and what a shame we couldn't stay longer. I was impressed with everything from the courteous staff who maintained a professional atmosphere while being able to be approachable. The food was brilliant and they obviously have a great chef to prepare and present the food which throughout our stay was brilliant. The... More
