Location was amazing . Food on dinner and lunch menu amazing

Accessibility poor. The hotel Could be made more disabled friendly. Some reception staff not so friendly nor f&b staff. Housekeeping amazing . Would have like a bedside lamp either side of the bed also grab rails in the shower would make getting in easier.

"For dyrt til standarden"

5.0

Tæt på Waverley Station

Værelset var stort men ret nedslidt. Lidt vakkelvorne møbler. Der var meget larm fra gaden og fra et stort byggearbejde overfor, samt fra renovering af hotellets øvre etager. Badeværelse ok. Morgenmad ok.
