The staff are very welcoming and helpful. The room and the hotel are clean. The bed was comfortable. We had a nice stay.
We didn't eat in the hotel so can't comment.
Staff excellent, rooms smart, clean and comfortable.
However really bad nights sleep. So advsie for all. Don't take a room that is immediately next door to the gym as we heard music and the treadmills going throughout the night.
Everything was excellent. The only thing I would comment on is that the restaurant was a bit too expensive. Paul's in the Melrose Arch which is one of the most upmarket restaurants in the area was cheaper.
