Great location in the city centre. We were on 2nd floor and the rooms probably need a refurbishment.

Had two night stay and was absolutely amazing! Luxury hotels greats staff, when i check out with Matthew he was helpful and professional.
Breakfast amazing, a variety of cooking and continental lot of fruits, everything perfect.
Room was clean and refurbished. The refurbished rooms were still quite narrow and the room seemed very small. The hotel is undergoing a refurbishment so amenities are not all there yet. Breakfast was nice.

Fantastic location, friendly staff, in particular, the reception staff and housekeeping manager. Rooms are a little dated and expensive for what you get. However, no issues with cleanliness which is important to me!
