8.6/10 Excellent! (1,005 reviews)
The hotel was great, staff were amazing bed so comfortable and room clean. I sadly have to say though that it was maybe one of the worst hotel breakfasts I’ve had, especially for a 4* hotel. Not worth the money sadly, hotel was worth it though! I’d use the hotel again but definitely not have a breakfast!
