Great room very clean and nice staff. The restaurant inside is some of the best Indian food I have had anywhere on top of the gorgeous atmosphere. It is a little pricy for a room But worth the cost if you are looking for something a little nicer and want that higher end feeling.

Lovely room. The cocktails in the bar were great. The staff were helpful and friendly. The hotel had the right amount of busy-ness in that there were other guests enjoying themselves, but plenty of capacity/space for us to sit downstairs in the bar area etc. All good.

The ‘junior classroom’ room was clean and novel - tall pitched ceiling into the roof space. Very nice room with complimentary mini-bar was a nice touch. We didn’t eat there or use the spa facilities but what we saw was a unique boutique hotel, converted from a Grammer school. The check in staff were courteous and friendly. I would definitely recommend a stay here.

I had a great time. The hotel was beautiful. I only wish the bathroom sink was a bit bigger and that the shower had a liner on the bottom. Water would get everywhere whenever I showered. But everyone was so nice. I would stay there again but in a different room
