Always a good stay here. Room was nicer than the last time we visited, staff are always friendly although the young waitress seemed very quiet. I had to ask her to repeat herself several times as i couldnt hear her. Other than that its a great stay. The bar staff are good and makes a wicked whiskey sour. Well worth a try. Parking is a waste of time. Only 6 spaces so you will be lucky.

The Hotel du Vin is not cheap, but you get what you pay for. Our room was spacious, clean and airy. The bed was comfortable and the linen was crisp and white. We had a fantastic hot and powerful shower in a large bathroom.
