Stay away from Room 15

I had a call a week before the booking and advised the representative from the hotel that my family have a early start in the lining and the lady said she would put my family in the quiet part of the hotel…… the room was above a noisy area and the window wouldn’t close after the staff member trying himself… no other rooms available. I spoke to the hotel and they promised a call for the Duty Manager in the morning….. still no call back as courtesy…. Dreadful example of a hotel.

Underwhelming but ok for one night

The hotel looks a bit tired and in need of a refurb (it appears to be in the middle of being done up) The room we were in had not been hoocered and there were biscuit crumbs on the floor. We asked to move rooms which was accomodated but the second room was still not very clean. The decor was also scuffed and dated. There were bleach marks on the quilt on the bed and paint marks on the chair. The shower tray flooded when using the shower as well. However, the staff were friendly and helpful and did apologise for these errors and provided a small discount which was a nice gesture. Still, dissapointing standards considering we paid nearly £100 per night.

gggGGGREAT!

Chloe and Flo’s welcome on the front desk was the best way to start a day for a cranky overtired traveller such as myself. The guys serving the breakfast were equally friendly and spritely. They have the best staff and the hotel location and setting are gggGGGREAT!

Nice friendly staff

Everyone at reception was helpful and friendly. Great central location. There was a heatwave and despite being provided a fan the room was extremely hot. Not much the hotel can do about it but might be worth considering a newer hotel with air con instead if travelling during heat waves.

The location was great. Staff was very friendly, and the property was beautifully renovated. Elevator was available. Suggestion for improvement: install AC units in rooms on top floors. Our room on the 3rd Fl. already heated up quite well during the day in May. Cool nights and open windows helped but might not be effective during a hot summer. Also, please install a lock box in rooms. I will stay here again.

The hotel was loverly and friendly . The rooms were clean and respectable. Great Breakfast and service. My only complaint was about the noise from Bar across road and people leaving quite late mainly students. However it did mention this on website that some times it could be noisy due to bar below hotel . No mention of bar and terrace across the road.
