7.6/10 Good! (1,009 reviews)
The room was comfortable and clean. The beds were really comfortable. Maid service was ok but they didn't actually remake the beds so the sheets underneath were still tangled when we went to bed on our second night. I wouldn't recommend a stay there on a weekend unless you're a heavy sleeper. I understand there was a nightclub downstairs but I honestly didn't expect the doof doof sound til 4am, as loud as it was 4 floors up! Especially the vibration through the walls at different points throughout the night. So unless you're going there for the nightclub, stay away on weekends.

The view from our room was fantastic One issue was the bathrooms flooded after each shower. Drier did not work well to dry floor mats. We paid money to open the other bathroom only to find it very dirty and dusty. The toilet was not cleaned, the drawers to basin had water marks on them. Dust everywhere Needs more bin liners for all bins. Apart from that it was great. Thank u

Hotel was fully booked at the time of stay. We paid a premium to stay one night but were put in a room above the spa and sauna which was very noisy up until 10pm. The blinds were broken. Breakfast was not great.

"The hotel offers a big breakfast buffet, but more on quantity than quality. It's very convenient because there are many small, reasonable dining options within walking distance. Only a 2-minute walk to the train station. Would stay here again. You just need a bit of patience with the elevator as ..."
