She got us a table in the restaurant too where we had a lovely dinner and great breakfast the next morning. The room in this old historical inn was very clean and comfy. Low doors and winding staircases add to the historial fun. The gardens are very well kept and pretty and we enjoyed exploring them after breakfast."

10/10 Excellent

This hotel was a gem of a find for us. The room was comfortable and quite spacious compared to some we gave stayed in. It was quite central to the historical buildings in the area. The rooftop restaurant had the best view of the cathedral. Breakfast was certainly a bonus. Loved our stay.
