    The cooked breakfast buffet was pretty good with two kinds of egg available. The breakfast room was impressive with stained glass windows. It felt like being at Hogwarts.

    A spectacular setting in the very heart of the city, with superb views of the cathedral and across the castle buildings to the town. Several flights of stairs reach to the room (as we were warned) but well worth the climb when we got there. Room...
