The staff Pam & Katie went out of their way to help us provide transport when we were stranded with a flat tyre after our Dolphin cruise. The room service meals were excellent. Very friendly staff, reception desk, chef and all. I will highly recommend this hotel and will definitely come back to it. Thank you so much Pam & Katie.
