The hotel maintains the original character of the house in beautifully designed rooms at the front of the building. However, there was an unpleasant smell of sewerage that seemed to go unnoticed by the staff. The location is perfect, offering easy access to various attractions while being tucked away in a quieter side street. The staff's service is exceptional, working together seamlessly to provide professional and attentive assistance. The dining experience offers a diverse and delicious selection, though slightly lacking attention to detail. Overall, a charming hotel with some minor drawbacks.
