Nous avons apprécié notre séjour dans cet hôtel. Les points positifs sont clairement son emplacement : le quartier est agréable et on rejoint le waterfront en quelques minutes à pied, ce qui est très pratique pour se déplacer et visiter la ville. Le parking sur place, gratuit, est également un vrai plus. Le petit déjeuner était bon, sans plus.

En revanche, la chambre était assez petite et l’insonorisation avec l’extérieur laisse à désirer, ce qui peut gêner selon la sensibilité au bruit. Le tarif pratiqué est quand même assez cher compte tenu des prestations.

The location is great to be able to walk around to nearby restaurants and shops.

We had no hot water the entire weekend eventhough we reported it to reception, the staff were dismissive and rude.

Located near the V&A in an area that felt safe and lots of options for eating out. Good breakfast buffet.

Slightly unusual setting in an old prison and half inhabited by a university business school. A few minutes walk between the rooms and the bar/breakfast.
