Wedding Anniversary break
Lovely hotel close to everything from shopping, dinning and sightseeing. Would definitely stay again but once the lift is working, as we where on the 4th floor, but room was beautifully renovated.

Lovely stay, breakfast was agreeable.
Denise, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Great service, bed uncomfortable
The position is great and the decoration good. The reception staff were always helpful. However, the bed was a small double and very hard and uncomfortable. Also, there was a noisy fan sound from somewhere that woke me up. I realise that beds are very subjective and the noise may only be localised but it affected me. This does not take away from the location or service. Also, the rooms were very well finished and the styling thought about.
Claire, 1-night trip

Poor Service, poor food quality particular at Breakfast, no hot water! One to miss.

6/10 Good

An OK stay
Conveniently located, very close to the city centre. The hotel offers ample parking spaces. Check-in was easy and quick. But, the hotel needs upgrading, the carpets are dated and so are the furniture. The lift didn't work during our entire stay, which was really inconvenient!
