Wrest Point
My room was upgraded, and I thank to the hotel management. Breakfast was really nice but not the hot coffee or chocolate from the machine. Ideally, it should be freshly made and serve.

The room was very clean, we were upgraded to a harbour view with a nice outlook. The staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfasts and dinner at the hotel restaurant, Tesoro, was excellent. Location was fantastic, near the piers, Salamanca, city, and ferry and bus services.
