9.6/10 Exceptional! (93 reviews)
The staff were incredible throughout, we loved them and their friendly helpful ways and will miss them. The situation is also excellent with many amenities nearby. Room service was also excellent BUT the noise from the Irish pub over the road was awful and completely disrupted our sleep on the 2nd night which was a Friday night, and partially disrupted it on the Saturday night. Breakfast at the Dock House Boutique hotel was also really uninspiring - small room felt claustrophobic and the food was very plain with croissants and bread that seemed a couple days old. I think we could have done better at another local hotel.
