Stunning - Everything was perfect. The staff were attentive but not too attentive that they were obvious. Rooms were clean , very cosy , comfortable beds, great selection of toiletries. Tea, coffee , fresh milk , water and cookies daily. Wonderful selection for breakfast. Amazing food for lunch and dinner. 24 hour bar for residents. I fell in love with this hotel and cannot wait for a reason to return . We were also there for a wedding , and the hotel rooms used for the wedding were perfect as well. Thank you so much The Bonham.
