Summary: The hotel is beautiful and in a great location. Walking distance to great dinner spots, coffee shops and the castle & park. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The main restaurant was fabulous and so was the bar. I would 100% go back to this hotel. Our room was beautiful and clean and the bathroom was huge. The shower was great as well, good pressure and nice rain head, and full enclosed glass shower which is hard to find in hotels these days! Parking was really convenient as well. 10/10.
