Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean, modern, and incredibly comfortable, just as I expected. The lack of a bar fridge didn't bother me at all, especially with the super comfy bed. The location was perfect in the calm but lively area of St Nicholas, just a short walk to the harbour and old town. The staff, especially Damian, went above and beyond to make our stay special, even driving us to the airport when our taxi didn't show. The dining experience was delightful, with a variety of delicious options, though the noisy atmosphere was a slight drawback. Overall, a superb hotel with excellent service and amenities.
I must say, this hotel surprised me. The rooms, while small and modest, were sparkling clean, and the service was top-notch. However, the location had its ups and downs, being in a quiet area yet a bit noisy. The dining experience had its quirks, but overall not too shabby.
Staying at this hotel felt like being in a hostel but without the safety deposit box. The rooms were a bit small, especially when compared to Le Yachtman down the road at a similar price. My room was small, under the roof with a small window, and required a walk up one floor as the elevator didn't reach that level.
