Établissement, d'une autre époque.,mais très propre. Nous etions dans une chambre face à la mer très bien équipée et suffisamment spacieuse. La chambre avait été rénovée et était très confortable. Le personnel est professionnel et concernant le bar et les restaurants sont très bien aussi. Le petit déjeuner est impeccable. Nous le recommandons.

Bad Business
I had booked through Hotels.com. My plans changed and had to leave two days early. I asked the front desk and said that since it was booked through Hotels.com, I needed their OK to receive a refund. I got the OK from Hotels.com who confirmed it at the front desk. When I asked to process the refund, the front desk was busy and I was asked to do it later that evening. They never let me know and after several attempts, they said it turns our they were not able to issue a refund of two nights. That's just bad business, especially after staying there for almost two weeks. There are other hotels on the water. Same view and half the price.

No hot water in bathroom , requested to change room but being told the whole building has no hot water, found out it was a lie only a few rooms have the problem. It was not fixed when checked out, the management has no intention to solve the problem, no follow up, very disappointed !

Our 'Superior Room' was a lot smaller than what the photos showed. They hardly have room to put your suitcase. The bathroom is tidy and modern and breakfast is average. There is a very good espresso machine in the room

Room quite small but well equipped and recently refurbished. Staff very friendly.The lift is hopeless, only one lift and far too small! The hotel car park was full, but there was parking on the street outside, though there is a charge for this from 8AM to 6 PM , 7 days a week. The hotel building is impressive, and you can watch the ferries. Very smart bar and restaurant. We stayed here to get an early ferry, but it’s let down by the lift and the parking, so would probably not stay again.

Nice hotel, but not a great room.
Nice hotel in a good location on the seafront. Good bar with plenty of outside seating. Unfortunately we had a room right next to the lift so we had a disturbed night's sleep. Also the service in the restaurant wasn't very good, but if we'd had a different room i think we would have enjoyed our stay.
