This charming hotel is very central and an easy walk to the harbour and other tourist sites. Our room was a good size and the bed was very comfortable.
The breakfast buffet was excellent in terms of the offerings with a good mix of local dishes. Only complaint was the hot food was only warm at best - the heat lamps did nothing.
The gym was excellent. A good range of cardio equipment and free weights as well as some weight machines.

We loved the personality of the hotel with its 1940s vibe. Fantastic service at the counter and by the concierge. Outstanding breakfast buffet. Nothing disappointed us. It was a fantastic property and we enjoyed our stay there very much.
