COVID-19 - Moving Forward

We are delighted to be welcoming you back to Da Vinci’s Hotel.

The safety and comfort of our Guests and Staff has always been our main priority, and this will remain the case as we work through these uncertain times together.

All of our operating procedures and have been reviewed and revised where needed, to ensure that all of our guests can relax, and enjoy their much needed break.

Our staff are here to provide you with the same excellent service Da Vinci’s is renowned for, whilst adhering to safe social distancing rules, and an enhanced hygiene routine.


Some of the steps we have taken:

There is a one way system in place throughout the hotel, please follow the arrows on the floor and signage for guidance. Please make sure at all times social distancing is adhered to. 

           Before you arrive:

•  All overnight guests must be pre-booked.
• To minimise time at check in, we will charge any reservation that has not been pre-paid in advance of arrival. The card used to confirm reservation will be charged at 12 noon day of arrival. If you wish to use an alternative method of payment, please contact us prior to this time. 
• If you have to cancel your reservation, and we have already charged your card, you will receive a full refund/flexible date change, provided you cancel within the terms of your booking. 
  
  On Arrival to the Hotel:
