Pick a room at the courtyard or at the back. The front rooms are nice but the road can be a bit noisy and there was construction work across the road which did not help

Fabulous one night stay
Bright, airy and beautifully decorated this hotel was exceptionally clean. The bed was comfortable and bathroom with a nice big shower and bath. There was a lovely pool to dip into surrounded by loungers. The service from security to all the staff, especially Ennoch from Hussar Grill, looked after us well. The only fly in the ointment was a waiter knocking on our door after we’d retired to ask us to sign a receipt for 2 drinks which we hadn’t had. Then to be given the bill the next day on departure was rather annoying to say the least so the hotel needs to sort that out so that cannot happen again. However we would return.
