“The attention to detail in the beautifully presented rooms, paired with genuinely warm hosting, makes for a restorative stay. Its location allows for a thoroughly pleasant riverside walk into the city, a journey made all the more comfortable by the quiet surroundings and the promise of a powerful shower upon return. You can tell considerable thought has gone into creating a welcoming atmosphere, right down to the generous breakfast selections.”
