The whole hotel was a dream, I’ve stayed before but my girlfriend hasn’t and wanted her to sample the skyline bar. We didn’t have a booking but the staff squeezed us in and made us feel welcome. Thanks again.

Room was clean and tidy with the usual items such as kettle, cups etc. Room was a little smaller than hotels such as Premier and the bathroom while well equipped was quite small. Staff were great.
