nice abbey stay

valet parkingquality producecar keys
the service was great, and i particularly appreciated the valet parking, made arrival and departure seamless. I also enjoyed the really good quality of the local produce served during breakfast, especially the eggs benedict. the staff's warm greetings each morning really set a positive tone for my days.
while the hotel boasts a beautiful aesthetic. i felt the need to leave my car keys with the valet a bit strange. it added a layer of complexity to accessing my vehicle that i found unnecessary and slightly inconvenient.

The porter service was very helpful with car parking. the location is beautiful. breakfast was very good. I appreciated the variety. the staff ensured my car was safe and accessible, it gave me peace of mind.
The main course was not nice. It lacked flavor. the carrots and parsnips were underdone and the pork had too much fat. i think a redesign could improve this.

The location proved FANTASTIC. It was right in the centre, close to many attractions. The breakfast was really good. It had many options.
The room I booked was supposed to have a city view. It did NOT, it faced into a closed paved area. This was between the hotel and other buildings. I did find that disappointing.
