Hotel was very nice overall. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The restaurant / bar area was very nice, although the food itself was average at best. The staff was as helpful as possible. At night the girl serving as hostess was also the one who checked us in. Although the hotel wasn't in the heart of the main shopping, restaurant and pub area it was a quick taxi ride to get there. Parking on site was very convenient.

I absolutely loved my stay at the Huntsman. From the moment I walked in the door at the reception desk to my meals in the restaurant, and to my leaving everyone was so welcoming so kind so helpful that it helped overcome any issues going on in the country related to fuel shortages. They are an excellent staff. Wonderful rooms. Beds are extremely comfortable.
