Wonderful stay!
perfect locationfresh fruitdelicious pastryhot room
The location was perfect, I was close to everything. I found many restaurants nearby. The hotel offered great access to attractions. I appreciated the rooftop bar. The views were amazing! I started each day with breakfast in the on-site restaurant. The pastries were delicious, and the fruit was fresh. The savory dishes were beautifully presented, made for an excellent start to my day.
The air conditioning unit was not working well. The room was hot! The staff moved me to a different room late at night. The new room was not any cooler.

Wonderful Stay in the Heart of It All
central locationfriendly staffexcellent showerharbour view
The location was very central. Staff were helpful and quite friendly. The room included sufficient wardrobe space and shelves. I also found the shower excellent. This hotel exceeded my expectations. The cleanliness throughout the hotel was noticeable. There was a rooftop terrace boasting views of the harbour and surrounding mountains.
The breakfast had limited variety. I hoped to see a larger selection of options.

The hotel's location was central. it was a short walk to many attractions and restaurants! the rooftop bar provided beautiful views. I enjoyed cocktails there. my superior double or twin room 1 was spacious and clean. It was very comfortable.
I found the air conditioning to be quite noisy. it made it a little difficult to sleep soundly. the breakfast selection, while adequate, could have been more varied. I expected more options. the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed at times. I didn't get immediate attention.

The hotel location felt perfect to me, across from the cathedral, it feels an easy walk to the waterfront. I found shops and restaurants all around the hotel. I saw a great view of the Easter procession from the rooftop, it delights my soul.
The receptionist and bar staff were very unhelpful to my heart. I booked the hotel for the roof terrace to see the fireworks, I were told that it was closed to the public.
