Reviews and Ratings
I had a delightful stay at the hotel, located just a stone's throw away from the sea and set in a tranquil park. The rooms were comfortable and newly refurbished, boasting lovely showers and good facilities. The service was exceptional, with the staff being very friendly and accommodating. Dining, while offering a seafood delight, could have included some hot options. The location, so close to the sea, was absolutely amazing.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable and newly refurbished with lovely showers, providing good facilities. However, having a bath would have been a nice addition. The service was exceptional, with the staff being very friendly and accommodating all our requests, including an early breakfast and check out. The location is superb, just opposite the beach at Stokes Bay, and the dining experience, while enjoyable with Sicilian cunzato bread, could have included more hot options. The facilities were top-notch, but there were some minor downsides in terms of pricing and value for money.
The hotel is perfectly situated on Stokes Bay only a stone's throw from the sea, surrounded by a park on three sides. The lovely garden in front of the sea adds to its charm. The rooms are comfortable, newly refurbished, and boast lovely showers. The service is exceptional with a very friendly staff that accommodated our early breakfast request and early check-out. The dining experience, while offering salads, could have included some hot options. Overall, the facilities are satisfactory, making it a good value for money choice.
