Had a 5-star weekend at this hotel. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Our room was cleaned and checked on often (they leave you chocolate and weather forecast for the next day every night!) We got lucky and the pool was just opened on our last day so we got to enjoyed it. Also loved the location as it's super easy to go grab a bite/check out local shops anytime and there are free bikes you can use whenever!
This was a very impressive stay.
We felt everything was very very good including the attentive staff.
Our bedroom was excellent and the bathroom with walk in shower - perfect.
Phenomenal quick stop awaiting family’s arrival for our long summer stay. Staff did great job making quick adjustments that afforded a fantastic respite.
Beautiful property with great amenities and walking distance to town. We loved our stay. Our suite was perfect for 3 people with a beautiful view of the harbor. We will stay here in a heartbeat!
Wonderful experience! Beautiful views, friendly and professional staff, comfortable room, great restaurant. Service was impeccable! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and can’t wait to go back!
I've stayed in my fair share of five star hotels but this was by far the best overall hotel experience I've ever had. It's an absolutely beautiful property right on the water with so much charm, and the location is perfect. You can walk or ride their bikes to pretty much everything. The hotel also offers a BMW car service that's very lux and convenient. The rooms are extremely comfortable. But what really makes this such a special place is the staff. The service was 11/10 in all parts of the hotel. Can't wait to go back!
