Perfect for the BIC
the hotel is in amazing location, brilliant for the BIC. It is an older place and things like carpets and bannisters need a little TLC. The hotel are up front about the night club and bar onsite, but to be fair, it didn't disturb us at all. rook was comfortable. Not our first visit, and wont be our last

Would return
Stayed here before, so booked again to visit the Xmas lights. We didn't have to pay for parking and the reception gentleman was very friendly. The room was clean, and very warm and there were toiletries in the bathroom. Breakfast was really good. The only downside is that when we returned in the evening we were hoping to get some food, however it was a very limited menu which was kind of sushi and oriental. It would have been nice if they could have offered a bar snack menu, even if it was only a burger. Other than this we could not fault the hotel
