historic setting good breakfast variety available parking unsure staff undercooked food irresponsible hotel
the building had a beautiful historic setting. the breakfast offered a good variety (i especially liked the local cheeses). the location was great with parking available.
the staff seemed unsure about the welcome drink and cocktail options. the chef's attitude regarding undercooked food was disappointing. i thought the hotel should have taken more responsibility.

The breakfast offered a good variety. I enjoyed it. Dinner was also very good. The location is great with parking available!!!
The car park is quite close by but not for any feint hearted drivers of large SUVs. It is quite difficult to locate by car.
