I absolutely loved my stay at Kelvin House! The hotel sat on a hill overlooking the sea, offering a fantastic view and a clean and comfortable room. The friendly staff provided outstanding service, making my experience even more enjoyable. The dining experience was excellent with a great selection of fresh-cooked breakfast. While the facilities were top-notch, the only downside was the higher price point compared to some other options.
