We had a wonderful two night stay at The Fingal. The staff were lovely as was the room, the bed was super comfy. The breakfast was delicious, it was lovely sitting in the dining room looking over the beautiful deck where you can sit outside and enjoy a drink or coffee in the sunshine. All in all it was totally amazing

3rd time here and unfortunately not a great experience this time. Having to ask to be served drinks, having to ask for the room to be made up, a stuffy room with noisy air conditioning… Felt completely overpriced and definitely not a 5 star experience. Sat outdoors both evenings and whilst the new seating is a great addition, the timber handrail and painted railings are looking tired
Drinks… finally…
