Well its owned and on the cathedral property. Wow I did not know that. It was a unique experience and close to the main streets. It was a great place to sleep next to the cathedral. It was cool to go to breakfast and see a priest or other parishioner getting ready to start a conference or some other worthy activity, not that that was the exclusive attendance of the hotel.

The property is centrally located, and the staff are helpful. The rooms leave a bit to be desired, but overall comfortable stay. The wifi (at least in our room) was unusable, on phones as well as the television in the room.

Mandy

Liked: Amenities
This hotel is beautifully situated right by the cathedral and sympathetically built. Staff were all helpful and friendly. The breakfast is table service but service is prompt and the food of good quality. Lots of guests were reluctant to sit by the door (draughty!) and the tables for two were quite close together. We did not find the small beds comfortable and were disturbed both nights by noise from adjacent rooms and would say that the walls are quite thin. The rooms are fitted out in a corporate way and the bathrooms on the small side and flooring a little tired but extremely clean. I loved looking out over the gravel garden and the cathedral from the window seat.
