"Overall, a reasonably comfortable stay with a few areas needing improvement."

6.0

The room was reasonably comfortable, with effective air conditioning and adequate wardrobe space. The breakfast offered a good selection of food and drinks, and there were plenty of communal areas available to relax and spend time with friends.

There were some ongoing decorating works around the hotel that weren’t communicated in advance or at check-in, which made certain areas feel a bit untidy. The seating in the bar area was noticeably worn and quite low, making it less comfortable, particularly for older guests. Service at the bar could be slow at times and lacked a warm, welcoming feel. Parking arrangements were also frustrating, with no clear option to reserve an electric charging space.

"Lovely hotel, great location, wonderful staff !!"

8.0

The staff were really lovely, nothing was too much trouble for them. The bedroom was big and very clean. We had afternoon tea to celebrate my husband’s birthday and the food was excellent - as were the breakfast and the food off the snack menu.

There is nothing that we really didn’t like but the small lift was very annoying. It held 3 people, it was barely big enough to fit my granddaughters pram in and we were staying on the fourth floor so walking wasn’t an option. It would really benefit from a second, much larger lift.

Clean and I was well attended to by all the staff, both at the bar and at reception.

Overall, the accommodation is good. The problem is that I got a single room next to a very noisy elevator. Every time someone pressed the elevator button, the noise came into the room.
