We did not have one of the grand rooms - but with high ceilings and a separate tiled bathroom that seemed just as large as the bedroom, there was a sense of old style grandeur. Excellent walk-in shower, nicely appointed tea/coffee making (see below), good quality toiletries. Especially appreciated the tooth-brush as one of our party had lost his.
More towel racks in the bathroom Aircon controls difficult to understand Limited dining options - and no breakfast on that day...really? A carpark that needed paving Small issue - but - it seems commonplace to provide a small sealed pack of milk in the bar-fridge. And they are always difficult to open - even more difficult to pour milk without spilling. But mustn't cry....!

We especially enjoyed the close proximity to the open air market and the marina! The bathroom was enormous & the manager kindly let us park our (expensive) custom folding travel bicycles in the room (bathroom). Plenty of space! The hotel is exquisite and very soundproofed! We’re definitely staying again!
We liked everything! Woolies is right around the corner too.

Great room with balcony overlooking the ocean. Large shower room and adjacent wash basins area. The room had been recently renovated to a very high standard. Very clean and comfortable. friendly staff. The hotel had a bistro and bar, although we did not eat there.
Generally excellent, although the function space next door did seem very loud until about 9.30.

Location, room amenities, privacy, comfort.
Breakfast was adequate to say the least. We had a reduced price due to the deal when staying so that made it okay. I would have been very disappointed if I had of paid full price.

Food, amenities and staff were excellent.
The hotel has live music every Friday evening. Our room was above the bar area and everything reverberated with the bass from the band. Music stopped about 1030 so was not too late.

Beautifully renovated- stylish and new, but in keeping with the hotel’s history. Staff were exceptional and very helpful. Food was wonderful and again, staff were excellent. An amazing experience.
It would have been nice to have breakfast, but not a pry as there were a few excellent options near by.
