"From the moment we parked the car in the excellent car park, to reception that was seamless and as if a personal concierge had taken us through the check-in process. We entered a modern well-equipped suite, to find everything needed for a comfortable relaxing stay. Ferris gave us advice on local sights, shopping and where to find the best eateries. This became the best stay of our trip. A definite stay next time we come to the Hunter."
