Excellent property with many dining and drinking options. The tomato soup and the carrot soup were amazing! The room was rather small and we had trouble figuring out how to turn on power for some of the outlets.

Awesome location

Amazing location, awesome bar and restaurant, A++ service at check in. We were 10 minutes from last call for food so the reception host sent us directly into the restaurant to order quick before we finished checking in. So awesome. Food was great, service was great. The inside bar area was huge and full of people playing trivia with a DJ type of host. Great energy. The only negative was the room. We had the apartment style which was kind of behind the main hotel. It was pretty old and outdated and not super comfortable. It wasn't gross, but not super clean either. It was fine for one night. Overall the hotel was great, the room just wasn't.

Great location on the sea front. We found it easy to park close to the hotel on the sea front road, although a parking charge of 1 euro per hour applies. The room we stayed in was spacious, well equipped and very clean. All the staff were helpful and welcoming. Breakfast is served at the hotel but comprises a choice from the a la carte menu. Unless you only eat a small breakfast we found was is best value to pay in advance (12 euros).
