"Formerly three Georgian houses, now a friendly hotel with traditional styling, comfy lounge and sunny breakfast room."

"It has a central location beside government buildings... requented by political figures."
Time Out

"Not so much grand as comfortable and quaint, with a matchless situation in the very heart of the city. The Aircoach stops across the road." Full review

Guests with mobility problems should ask for a room on a lower floor, as the old building (actually three townhouses merged together) has many staircases.
