The hotel has been recently renovated and looks amazing, while keeping the original charm of the place. The restaurant and bar has such a cosy but vibrant atmosphere, with a brilliant menu (delicious) and such kind staff. Every single person who we met was friendly, and we felt so welcomed - as was our dog! Will stay again.
