“Wanted to not like it.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2011
5
people found this review helpful

When husband and I arrived for our one night stay, we were terribly disappointed with our room! We had requested a balcony with a citadel view, and instead got no balcony and no view. We requested being moved to another room but were unsuccessful. We got no cooperation whatsoever from the front desk. They basically said "sorry we can't help". We were fuming! And we couldn't wait to get on tripadvisor to rip this hotel apart!

We decided to check out the town which was an easy stroll. The hotel is very conveniently located.

We returned to the hotel and decided to walk down to the pool. The pool was refreshing and clean. It was situated on a gorgeous setting with sea and citadel views. It was really, really lovely. We returned to the room to freshen up and had probably the most exhilarating shower(great water pressure!) we had for our entire 2 week vacation having stayed at multiple hotels. We enjoyed very reasonably priced drinks and snacks from the minibar fridge before heading out for dinner.

Having returned from our evening out, we had a great sleep in a comfortable bed. Upon waking, we headed down to breakfast and enjoyed the single-best breakfast we had on our entire 2 week vacation. The service from the breakfast staff was attentive and the buffet was continually stocked and very fresh and delicious, with more choices than we could eat.

Parking was directly outside the front door so loading/unloading was a snap. And there was free internet.

So, although I had intended to rip this place apart due to my disappointment with the room and unhelpful front desk, in reality this place was really quite good. The room was not the best as it was dated and had no view. But it wasn't expensive and all of the other things the hotel has to offer completely made up for it. So although we really didn't want to like it we did and we recommend it. Be sure to get the room you want however. Then you'll have a realy perfect stay.

“Lovely location”

Excellent location. Clean and comfortable rooms. Lovely food in a dining room with wonderful views. Friendly staff.
Particularly good breakfast- constantly replenished.
Used by tour groups but this just lends a lively ambience to the dining room.
Loved it.

Room Tip: Mysteriously, top floor is premier etage. Good views. No lift.

“Excellent Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2011

person found this review helpful

This is an excellent hotel with friendly staff, a camaraderie among guests and excellent food. Wi fi is now free.

The only slight downside is that the rooms are a little small compared with more recently built hotels but their cleanliness is excellent and in our view the location is unbeatable.

It is, perhaps, a little expensive but you get what you pay for. We certainly greatly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

“A Great Place To Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2011

person found this review helpful

This was a very pleasant Hotel with great staff and very close to the harbour and beach. Our room was very comfortable and very clean - new sheets and towels every day. Swimming pool was good but on the cool side temperaturewise.

The breakfasts on the balcony were great.

Room Tip: Ask for a sea view

“Difficult to Fault”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2010

We stayed for a week in September. The location is superb with a dramatic view of the citadel and only a few hundred yards to the marina, shops and restaurant. Unusually for such a position it had free car parking. The rooms were on the small size but comfortable and clean. The pool area was superb with views, shaded areas and a walk down to the rocky area below. The nearest beach was a 10 minute walk away but was beautiful and shallow sloping making it suitable for children.

The staff were pleasant and helpful. The food was delicious.

This hotel is difficult to fault.
