Excellent food! The breakfast was varied and nourishing, and food was served all day. We ate there several times and were always impressed. The location was fine, between two parks and a short walk from the city centre. Special thanks to the member of staff who helped us with our taxi problem!

    I liked the cozy atmosphere of the Victoria Inn, the friendliness of the staff. My bed was very comfortable and the room including the bathroom was very clean. I really appreciated that I was provided two bottles of water everyday free of charge, as well as a selection of tea bags and coffee-

    The staff who were from another inn to cover were fabulous. They worked really hard supporting the guests needs as best they could. Evening meal choices limited. However, what was ordered was fresh and well presented.
