I had a fantastic stay at the Florence Gardens Hotel! The location is superb, being just a short walk from the seafront and local attractions. The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated, making for a comfortable retreat. The dining experience exceeded my expectations, especially the breakfast, which was truly exceptional. However, I'm hoping for a few more amusing options in the dining area during my next visit to spice things up. Overall, it was a lovely experience that I can't wait to repeat.

I had a delightful stay at this charming boutique hotel. The room was beautifully decorated and very spacious, making it extremely comfortable. The courtyard restaurant was a nice touch, serving excellent food, including the best gluten-free pizza I've ever had. However, the location wasn't directly on the beachfront, which might be a drawback for some. Overall, the experience was memorable and I would love to return someday.

I had a wonderful time at this hotel! The staff were exceptionally accommodating, quickly resolving our initial room noise issue and ensuring we were comfortable. The breakfast was a highlight each morning, with generous options that were delicious and satisfying. However, I did have a bit of a letdown with the small double room I initially booked, which felt cramped for two people. Overall, the hotel provides good value for money with its unique charm, albeit with some room size considerations.
