"We were placed in a room directly above the Disco. We arrived back from dinner quite late and did our best to put up with the noise. At one point the teaspoons were resonating on the saucers! It got to about 12:30 in the morning before we complained; in hindsight we should have done it much sooner. The chap on reception said there was nothing he could do so I asked to speak to the duty manager. I was told he was too busy to speak to me and we should’ve had some correspondence to explain that this particular room was noisy. I didn't recall seeing any correspondence but I checked nevertheless. Our booking was with Expedia/Hotels.com and no information from them. Also, no email correspondence directly from the Hotel either. I made my way down to the reception and demanded to speak to someone in person. Eventually, another manager arrived who was very helpful, and directed us to an alternative room on the third floor, which really was very nice. Such a shame, because the hotel is lovely and everyone we dealt with earlier in the day were very nice. The moral of this story; do you watch out for those handful of rooms that are either above or around the area of the Disco because they are extremely noisy. If you do get caught out, you must put your foot down politely with the Hotel management, because otherwise you may be left where you are."

"Loved our stay so much that I’m booking my next trip now! I took my pug and he had a great time! So accommodating to travelling with your pet!"

"The staff were friendly and welcomed. They let me check-in early at no extra cost. The hotel is well situated and their cooked breakfast is fantastic. Absolutely delicious. The hotel is dated and the walls are thin, so if you are a light sleeper you will struggle to sleep. I'm a heavy sleeper and had a rough sleepless night due to loud neighbours."

"Very friendly and helpful staff. Very close to the centre and the BIC which is where my husband and I went to a concert. Breakfast was plentiful and the room was quiet, clean and comfortable."

"The staff (Jamal) were friendly and welcoming. The hotel however is tired and requires a makeover and updating."
