The staff were lovely and offered us some complimentary prosecco on arrival. The breakfast was delivered to our room when we asked for it and our room was lovely. Would stay again
Room was large the bed was incredibly comfortable and the room exceptionally clean.
I will definitely recommend and will certainly be staying again in future.
Staff were very friendly and helpful! Location was great, the room itself was okay, but the bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was great, shower was stunning. Would happily stay again

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was beautiful. It had plenty of personality and was very clean. The hotel is well situated to things to do, with night life in Canal Street and lots of restuarants, bars and sightseeing within a 10/20 minute walk.
The location and building were lovely. The room was very spacious and nicely furnished!
It can be a bit noisy on an evening from nearby bars but it wasn’t anything of an issue for me.
Unfortunately on my stay the heating was not working and some others within the hotel had mentioned. So was a little bit cold in the room.
Overall a nice stay! With nice staff!
The chek in was easy, quick and straight forward. The hotel is spotless, the room as very big and was a lovely place to relax in, and again spotless. Lovely shower and all in all an excellent experience.
Great location, glass on Prosecco on arrival was a lovely touch. The breakfast was included as a room service which was nice. The only slight negative, it was quite noisy. I don’t mean noise from outside, we were prepared for that due to location. It was inside noise - other noisy guests coming and going.
Room was great though small - great shower. Superb location. Breakfast is really not good - no choice, v basic, no hot drinks..and although a kettle and coffee machine, no water to fill it or milk for tea etc… really needs to be sorted out! …or don’t even offer it!
The air conditioning was stuck on cold so we had to turn it off. Stains on towel and bath robe. Mould on sealant in the shower.
Our room wasn't cleaned very well.
Continental breakfast was poor and pastries were stale.
Very nice shower. Comfortable bed. Fantastic location in the heart of the city and near the railway station. Also a nice adjoining bar.
But we would not stay here again.
really nice room, spacious and lovely design, great hotel staff and brilliant location
