The hotel was situated only a few minutes walk across the bridge to the main restaurants in the area. There was a small beach very close by, being about 5 minutes walk which you could swim. The front of the hotel overlooks the harbour which is just across the road. Nearby are two food shops which you can get drinks, food, wine and spirits. The hotel is spotless and the staff very friendly. The two rooms (family room) were very pleasant with aircon and supplied with a fridge and two flat screen tv's. There was also a safe in the cupboard. I was suprised however that there was no kettle or provisions to make a drink and that the fridge was empty. The fridge seemed to take 3 days to chill itself let alone any drinks put in it. The bathroom had a mixer shower bath and again was spotless. Towels were provided and the room was cleaned daily to a very high standard! I have to say this, the standard maintained by the staff was amazing, even to placing my daughter's cuddly toy in various positions amusing us when we returned. We loved it. The breakfast was very nice and there was something for everyone and from whatever country you came from. Again here, the staff were very friendly and constantly topping the breakfast bar up. We stayed for a week and yes planes do fly overhead. The rooms are well insulated, and with windows closed, it really isn't an issue. In fact, we watched them from the balcony with interest. I certainly didn't loose any sleep due to planes. I can honestly say, I couldn't hear any other guest either. We were on the first floor and sadly situated to the rear of the hotel. Our room 103, did not have the desired views across the harbour and out L shaped balcony accessed from only the kids room overlooked the flats next to the side of us and the laundry room and I think the aircon room. I was really disappointed about this and I guess this is just luck of the draw. I pictured my wife and I sitting on the balcony in the evening with a glass of wine overlooking the harbour. Instead, we had next door some apartments and the raised car park behind of private residential houses. Pictures and write ups are deceptive here and initially nearly ruined my time at the hotel. Realistically, we only spent a very short time in the rooms and we got on with it. It felt a little strange that the two rooms felt the wrong way around. The two single beds were in the larger room with a desk, fridge, safe and only door out onto the balcony. The large double bed was in a smaller room. It mattered not, just felt odd. Both rooms had individual aircon units and there were roll down shutters on all the windows and door to the balcony giving you extra security. The windows would open like a conventional window or tilt from the bottom which included the door onto the balcony. This would be very good for young children and prevent access to the balcony but still allow ventilation in to the room. The lift for us was close by, but we used the stairs. In summary,
Très bien
