The hotel is very good and convenient for the Funicular railway and for the new town. It would have been handy if there was some information in the room as to how the Air-Con worked. I took us three days to find the contriol. I think a little sign above the control with the words "Air Con" would be understood by people of most languages.

This is a lovely hotel. Well located to see the old and new towns. Parking is great, particularly if you have a high value car. The hotel is friendly and breakfast is great with a good section. The rooms are spacious and clean but a little tired. Don’t let that put you off as overall the hotel is great and worth a visit
