We loved the hotel and it had a perfect location for our purpose, namely for visiting the Christmas market next to the Cathedral.

All museums and the Blackhead House were near and the surroundings of the hotel were very quaint. Beautiful Christmas holiday target.

Could not of asked for a better location in the old town. Right next to Cathedral, Christmas markets, bars and restaurants.

Very courteous staff at reception and breakfast.

We were fortunate to be allocated one or the charming older rooms in the original building section. This was a huge room with original wooden beams and a quirky slanted floor.

The staff were so helpful and the rooms were good with lots of character.

It is an amazing location and with one of the Christmas markets only a few metres away it was a wonderful place to stay for a winter break. The breakfast is excellent with great choice. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Excellent value for money.
