We stayed at the Diplomatic as we were travelling with a baby and wanted a better standard of accomodation. We were not disappointed as it was very nice. The room was quite big and had all you need for a pleasant stay. Our room was ground floor and we had a big terrace to sit out on at night. The... more

My wife and I have just returned from the Diplomatic. It's our second visit and it just gets better. The standard of cleanliness and food are superb. The staff are very welcoming and helpful.

(Did not wish to spend our short break with dirt, noise or drunken neighbours etc.) The reception staff were friendly and soon organised a room for us. The room was small but clean, quiet and very comfortable. We had breakfast only which was... more
