I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is well-located for business trips and provides a quiet atmosphere. My room had a lovely view of the beautiful garden, making my stay a peaceful one. The breakfast was a highlight, as it was the best I've had compared to other places. However, the room I had overlooked some not-so-pleasant views of pipes from the restaurant. Overall, it’s a good option for an overnight stay, especially considering the good value for money.

The hotel has some really charming features, especially with its stunning views of the garden and a quiet, tucked-away location that feels cozy like your own sitting room. However, I did face some issues with the rooms being a bit too hot at night and the soundproofing was definitely lacking. Overall, the stay was pleasant, but it could use improvements in comfort and amenities.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which turned out to be a hidden gem! The location is terrific, with everything you might need just a short walk or a quick drive away. The rooms are spacious and bright, but it did get quite warm due to the frosted glass windows that wouldn’t open. The service was excellent, with friendly staff making me feel welcomed. Overall, it's great for an overnight stay, but a little updating wouldn't hurt.
