"Acceptable and expensive"

Location, Roof Terrace

£75 to hire Dome on for 3 hours, having spent £330 on dinner. Breakfast crammed in very small area. Very overpriced.

"Very pleasant, would return."

8.0

It is centrally located, very close to shops and cafes. We got an upgrade to a larger room which was very welcome. The staff were very friendly and responded to every request promptly. The Spa and Gym are great and the rooftop restaurant has great views!

Unfortunately there was construction right across the street which started at 8 am and was quite loud. Not the hotel’s fault of course, just our bad luck.
