Really lovely grounds. Staff and food very good too. It is an old building, but I think the rooms need a bit more maintenance. Multiple things in my room didn’t work (mainly things in the bathroom and safe) I would stay again though.

Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Food (particularly the Indian dishes) were very tasty - breakfast buffet selection is great. Bed was a little more firm than I'm used to, but comfortable. Decor/fixtures are a little dated but still classy and picturesque.

Old world charm in a city!

Interesting hotel with serious ambience. A great location close to the city without feeling like every other major hotel chain. This hotel is just different and does not pretend. The beds are good and the security is great.
