- JJane Bolton26/01/2024we had a great view over the harbourwe had a great view over the harbourWe booked to stay for the weekend as my daughter got married. The rooms were really nice and we had a great view over the harbour. We also had dinner in the restaurant after the wedding with our party and was very happy with the food and service. The only criticism I had was I thought the restaurant could have given us a complimentary bottle of wine or dessert as a nice gesture for my daughter's wedding.We booked to stay for the weekend as my daughter got married.

- Linda Nobes26/01/2024I highly recommend this hotelI highly recommend this hotelThough I didn't stay at this hotel I did have occasion to visit and found it to be a great place! My niece got married last weekend and they had their reception at the Poligon Gallery, just around the corner from this hotel. Several wedding guests stayed here as the couple had arranged group rates and I heard really good comments about their stay. I also parked my car in their underground parking lot and found the staff friendly and helpful, both when I was telephoning for parking information...Though I didn't stay at this hotel I did have occasion to visit and found it to be a great place!
