Rothay Garden by Harbour Hotels

10/10 Excellent
"The room was spacious and clean, bath robes and slippers, complementary drinks, tea and coffee machine in the room. The bed was very comfortable and big and the shower pressure was amazing. They have a small spa, sometimes there's no one in there and you can have it all to yourself. It was a charming place and probably one of the nicest hotels I have stayed in. Special thanks to the staff, who are caring and always happy to help. Cannot wait to visit again."

10/10 Excellent
"Loved the room and the view. Very comfortable but no heating. (Sept). Fine the first night but was cold the second night. Light breakfast was help yourself. Was ok but would have been better if they had plates for your toast and metal cutlery. All cutlery was wooden and cardboard dishes for cereal. Didn’t put us off though. Had a lovely time."

10/10 Excellent
"The staff were fab, couldn’t do enough for you. We stayed for 2 nights and did a few walks round the area and it’s in a great area. The room was lovely and spacious. We also took our dog and the amount of space and areas they were allowed was great. The breakfasts were really nice and again, the staff were really great. My only real gripe was a 10:30am check out but that’s being really picky. We are already planning our next one"

"The hotel was very well maintained and super clean one of the nicest hotels we’ve ever stayed in the Uk, the staff went above and beyond and were very accommodating they kept our luggage as we planned a hike and the breakfast was lovely too. We hadn’t had the time to use the spa facilities or anything else. We would recommend this hotel as everything is super close and convenient. Thank you to all the staff"
