Guest Ratings & Reviews
Staying at this hotel was a fantastic experience overall. The rooms were just amazing with a spa bath, an extra comfortable king-size bed, and a breathtaking sea view, making it a truly magnificent stay. However, being above a restaurant with loud music until midnight was a bit of a downside.
The hotel offers a great view and terrace with a jacuzzi, breakfast in a nice restaurant next door, and a prime location at the old harbor. Although the rooms seem high-end superficially, they lack family-friendly features like locks on bathroom doors and showers; however, they have a large firm bed and a spacious clean bathroom.
