Rooms feature high ceilings and bay windows, with some Deluxe Queen Rooms offering bay window seating areas. Each room includes a flat-screen cable TV, mini fridge, and tea- and coffee-making facilities.

Multilingual staff members such as Mark and Aziza receive frequent praise for their helpfulness and local dining recommendations. The hotel maintains high hygiene standards with daily housekeeping and quality toiletries in the bathrooms.

Value & Practical Info

The property is a Victorian building dating to 1865, with a luggage lift available for guests who cannot manage stairs.
