Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Rooms can feel tight for two — One guest noted that the double bed is a bit small for two people, so couples might consider a suite or twin option.
  • Dining rating below average — The hotel’s dining score (6/10) suggests that while breakfast is liked, other on-site dining options may be less compelling.
  • Rooms and cleanliness could improve — At 7/10, this rating category is the lowest, indicating some guests have had issues with room maintenance or housekeeping, despite many positive comments.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, which may be a dealbreaker for some travellers.
  • Limited public areas — With only 43 rooms, common spaces like the pool and sun terrace are compact, so they might feel busy at peak times.

“Everything was excellent – a great hotel in a handy location, with restaurants, cafés, and bars close by, plus easy access to public transport and the airport link. My room had satellite TV, climate control, and a safe, and I liked the separate shower in the open bathroom. The service was top-notch; I had three lovely nights here.”
