Great hotel right next to the castle!
This was a lovely hotel and conveniently located right next to the castle — in fact, our room had a direct view of the castle, which was so nice! The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend staying here!

Sedate stay👍
Total easy to find, very friendly staff willing to assist.
Location was perfect for us, central enough to access everything with a short walk, but, far from the hustle & bustle of the city centre, win win.
