Morgans Hotel
Nice hotel close to centre of the city. Staff friendly & helpful. We stayed in a room in the annexe which was spacious, however the floor particularly in the bathroom was springy & made a loud squeaking noise. The bed was also very hard & had difficulty sleeping on it. Breakfast was excellent.
