Stayed here for two nights in a suite. Our experience was just ok. The food was good, the blackout curtains were nice after a long flight, and we met a nice gentleman who was part of the housekeeping staff. The negatives outweighed the positives though. The bed was rock hard and we woke up stiff. People we met at breakfast had the same experience. The blonde girl at the front desk was quite rude when we called down, even hanging up on me before I was finished speaking. Either she was having a rough day or her personality is not well suited for hospitality. The drains in the bathroom didn’t work properly so the shower and sink were constantly backed up which meant you had to race to wash your face before the sink spilled over. The shower wand was also leaking.

St James’s Centre and Prince’s Street/George Street immediately adjacent. Room immaculate and ideal shower/wash room. Quiet bedroom and exceptionally comfortable bed. Lift system a little quirky but reception staff welcoming and willing to help at every turn. Bus/tram system appears perfect for most peoples needs.

Room was great very clean and interesting décor. Restaurant and Bar were also good lots of food options for a reasonable price. The only reason why it didn't get an excellent rating is because we were charged for drinks when we received a coupon at reception for free drinks (or 14 pounds off) at the bar. Ended up paying $50 CAD for 2 drinks even though bartender said it was covered.
