Colessio

Colessio

10/10 Excellent
"The Colessio is perfectly situated for exploring the historic old town and castle and for venturing down the hill to the town centre. I cannot fault anything from walking into a light and comfortable reception to leaving after a tasty and filling Scottish breakfast after one of the most comfortable night's sleeps I've ever had in a hotel. The bed was just perfect as was the room and its amenties."
