“With spacious, well-equipped rooms, some offering stunning harbor views, this place is a gem; the restaurant elevates the experience further, especially with their lamb dishes and even their burger. Breakfast includes homemade breads and jams, a touch that sets it apart, and the staff clearly strives for spotless cleanliness. This hotel and its location are a winning combination.”
