The hotel has a beautiful location right by the ferry terminal, offering stunning views of the sea and mountains. Our room even had a private spa for two, which made the stay extra relaxing. Everything was wonderful — the only thing that could make it even better would be having some USB outlets in the room.

Steve

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Nice in every way except: (1) Unreliable wi-fi and something also blocked my own data, had to go outside and some distance away from the building to get internet access (so it wasn't my phone at fault, but something to do with the building), which prevented me from doing laptop work that needed internet access, so was problematic for a working trip. (2) breakfast not available at the adjoining restaurant.
