Tomer, Apr 2015

Pros. The hotel exceeded our expectations. It was beautiful, clean and stylish, it even had fragrance oils in every corner so it smelled like heaven. The double bed room was relatively small but has everything one might need. Bathroom was big, beautiful and luxurious with boutique soup collection. The housekeeping was exceptional, the room was cleaned twice a day and little treats like chocolate was left for us once a day. Loved it!

Pros. Service, location, history and character

Cons. Small 'standard' rooms, only just large enough for a couple with minimal luggage.
