We’re called The Hotel Folk

Hand reaching for toiletry minitures
Woman closing curtains
Chef looking into oven

First, we’re the experts in providing great service. And second, we’re a community of folk obsessed with looking after our guests. Put the two together and you have the thing that makes us truly special.
