Lovely small hotel

Great small hotel, close to bars, beach and town centre. Heated outdoor pool and hot tubs were lovely, always a spare sun bed available and the cocktails were fab ! The roof top bar was closed during our stay but we were not told this on check in.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a wonderful experience overall. The bed and pillows were exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. The entire property was very clean and well-maintained, which I really appreciated. One of the highlights was the heated pool with plenty of lounge beds available—it was a perfect spot to relax. The staff were fantastic—friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. The service throughout my stay was top-notch and made me feel very welcome. The only downside was the lack of soundproofing in the rooms. If you're facing the street, you will hear traffic noise, people talking outside which could be a disturbance for light sleepers. That said, the positives far outweighed the negatives, and I would happily stay here again.

Spent 8 days here over the Christmas period. As a solo traveller it was perfect. Room was cleaned daily along with all the communal areas which were spotless. The heated pool and jacuzzi were amazing for a stay in December. Situated close to the beach/promenade. I was room only so cannot comment on food. A perfect stay. I will definitely return

The staff were lovely. The room was comfortable, light, and clean. The tv had English channels, which was great after a long day sight seeing. The shower was excellent. I can't comment on the restaurant, as it was closed for the week. However the hotel set out drinks and small breakfast pastries, which were tasty. It's an easy walk into the main town (if you use the lift, as the hill was steep!). Very good value for money.

Super Nice Hot

This is a super nice hotel. Great location within walking distance to the beach. Lovely pool, hot tubs and sauna. 3-4 really good restaurants adjacent to the hotel. Plus a bar in the lobby open until 11 pm. Excellent value.
