On arrival the impression is of a chic city hotel, however it is soon apparent that this hotel manages to combine elegance and professional qualities with the friendliness and relaxation of a resort hotel. The location is ideal right on the beach front, easy access to shops and restaurants. This area of the town seems to have the most character.... More
