Nice hotel in a perfect location

The hotel was very well located and within walking distance of all key sites. Staff were friendly and the hotel is in good condition. However rooms were very hot even though we could open the windows. Air circulation and air conditioning needs fixing.

The hotel is very pleasantly decorated, clean in appearance and the staff personable. Breakfast was a lavish spread, well made and very good. The water pressure was good in the shower as well, with towel heaters functional and very comfortable beds. On the downside, the entire hotel periodically smelled strongly of sewage, which seemed to seep from the halls into the rooms themselves. With the exception of the smell, I'd stay here again.

Beautiful lobby and bar area. Reception staff were ok. The rooms probably need a bit of maintenance. Some dark spots on bathroom walls looks quite unsightly. Pillows were a bit lumpy. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

Smart hotel

Very smart hotel, with a lovely room with a very comfortable bed and excellent shower. The only slight criticism of the room was dust on the mirror and the LED lights switches are so bright, it makes it difficult to sleep due to the light they emit. Fantastic breakfast. The underground car park was a bonus.

short stay.

My room, 2031, was small but adequate. For a small room the TV was too large but not a problem to complain about. Breakfasts were great with a good display and choices. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful.
