First time staying in a hotel it was nice and clean tidy but didnt like the noise of people walking down the corridors at night talking and paper thin walls but apart from that staff were friendly and the breakfast was fantastic and great value

Very lovely staff who were friendly and welcoming. A real personal touch.
There's a very nice bar area for gathering and meeting up.
Garden area beautiful and I think all the trees and landscaping help to muffle any road noise because it was very quiet at night

Located next to the beautiful botanic gardens. The room was spacious, well appointed but too hot. I had to open the door and window so I could sleep
