23/01/2026: My wife and I enjoyed a return visit to Scholars Townhouse for an overnight stay. We enjoyed previous stays and many dining occasions and I'm happy to say that the food quality is as good as ever. We appreciated the warm welcome and environment, as it was cold and wet outside. We arrived early and were allowed to park on the grounds while we went shopping downtown. Our room was very cosy and comfortable. There was a problem with a noisey fan in the bathroom - the mount had become loose and rattled continuously. The problem was solved while we dined so we were not inconvenienced. Each staff member was friendly and professional. Christian appeared to be everywhere - in the bar, making cocktails, coffees and serving drinks, then in the restaurant serving meals, cleaning tables so we were very impressed by his work ethic and friendly demeanour. We slept well, although the room did become a bit too warm. Breakfast was memorable. Our server was very welcoming, polite, professional and attentive. The food was fresh and tasty. Checkout was easy and efficient (and possible to do it online, if desired) but it was not possible to leave a tip as part of the payment system. Our thanks to all the team members who contributed to making our stay so pleasurable.
