    This small 7 bedroom boutique hotel has a feeling of calm and family home, but with luxury and consideration. The rooms are beautifully fitted and the staff are exceptional friendly and welcoming. Lovely breakfast included and areas to relax. The pool area is cleverly designed and I had a great massage booked in my room. Wonderful stay with my sister.

    The staff were incredible - they knew guests by their names, always asking about our days, giving recommendations or booking restaurants for us when we didn't have one on the first night. They also gave a thorough run-through of the city on arrival including safety precautions when wandering around. As we were staying for 10 nights they offered us a free upgrade halfway through our trip. The interiors are stunning and i would like the interior designer to decorate my home!
