The location of the hotel is simply stunning - we were left a little disappointed with the overall service.. we asked for hand soap to be replaced and it took 2 days. We asked if we could take our breakfast up to the balcony one day and whilst being told it was ok - the breakfast team were not fully aware and we were stopped. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but the service could have been a little better. The hotel is getting on a little bit too - very old lift.
