“The commanding harbour views from this hotel are certainly a draw, amplified by its prime position right by the train and ferry terminals. Rooms are spacious and comfortable, with many benefiting from those striking sea vistas. While breakfast is a highlight, known for its made-to-order quality and generous portions, the brasserie menu offers a more varied, albeit pricier, experience.”
