The lobby is picturesque place to relax, and the entire hotel is pristine and elegant. The staff is incredibly kind and go out of their way to help, carrying my luggage and offering me water. If you want to be treated like royalty, then this is a great place to stay.

It’s a beautiful boutique hotel. Location is excellent. The restaurant and gym were both very nice for a boutique hotel. Staff were really nice. Addressed me by my name. Bathroom was small but lovely. The water pressure and shower was spa quality. Highly recommend it.

Alison 8.0

I thought the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Also really like the decor of the hotel, very stylish and colourful.

Michael 9.0

The property is well maintained and they certainly take pride in it. The staff is professional and well trained. I especially liked Jonathan, one of the bar tenders. He came to our table after I gave the waitress a complicated drink order. I kidded him to take a seat at our table and join us, and then moved over. He sat down and made the best martini ever. And to my great surprise, he lives about ten minutes from a place we stay in Alicante, Spain.
