Delightful, old style hotel in a fantastic central location!

9.0

A wonderfully located hotel within walking distance to all tourist hot spots and harbour front. The front desk staff very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast buffet was plentiful and beds comfortable.

The hotel is an old style hotel and the decor may appear a bit dated but it adds to the ambience of an older style hotel. It's not a criticism more an observation......
