Avoid at all cost. Central but the place is disgusting. What makes it worse is the security guy at night standing demanding your room number and names of the people in the room. Two women having to say our room number in front of drunk men at night in a large hotel with various corridors etc is definitely not safe. Staff are rude, windows didn’t have all the panels, beds like rocks bathrooms full of mould

me and my boyfriend stayed here we were put on the top floor but had no windows at all. all throught the night there was really loud banging wich made us feel so unsafe. the room smelled so damp and the fire alarm even went off in the early hours of the morning around 5 am making us jump and wake up. we asked if we could move but the staff were rude and said no. me and my boyfriend had gone out on our first night for an evening meal and some drinks when we came back to the hotel staff where giving greif to other guests and asking for names and proof that we were staying here we showed them our room card gave names and even told our room number but this wasn’t enough it took us around an hour to sort this out and get back to our room this happened again on the second night

The hotel is fine to look at and well situated but rooms are not well insulated from each other, e.g. hearing people above walking around.

Brittania has a reputation for having grand old hotels but ... The age and lack of maintenance makes £100 for one night ... A bit much when the ceilings have cracks, peeling paint work and random huge lamps as the only option for lighting (so easy to knock off). However, it is what it is and it was clean and safe as far as I could tell.
