    What welcoming staff. I was there with my friends for my birthday breakfast. It was a treat and was so impressed. Our waitress Thuli was amazing and so accommodating to all our irregular meal preferences. Will definitely be back there soon. Thank you for such amazing service

    The food is usually good but this night it was not. The food came late, the fishcakes were soggy & the salad bland!

    Probably one of my best visited hotels ever, service was outstanding and I felt very accommodated the first minute I walked in. This hotel ticked all my boxes. This is definitely recommended for anyone that needs to get away and relax. Most beautiful scenery.

    I was very impressed with the entire experience. It was a shame that we could not sit outside due to the rain. The food was excellent, waiter service excellent. My only comment about ambiance is that I found that area a bit cold in terms of decor. It’s my opinion that the deli area should have different, maybe wooden floors to separate it from the other area. All in all though, I will definitely be back.
