Guests find the rooms spacious and comfortable, some noting the bathrooms are a good size, and appreciate amenities like air conditioning and TVs. The breakfast, with a good choice of food including daily hot options. is a highlight for many; though some have noted that breakfast is served in a repurposed meeting room instead of the main dining area. the hotel provides a pleasant base for exploring the city centre.

the staff allowed my daughter to put gifts and balloons in my room for my arrival. the staff were friendly, and very helpful, it was a nice welcome. the location is excellent and breakfast with a choice of what to eat resulted in a great experience.
bathroom tiles were grimy by the shower. i also noticed that the dressing table felt sticky which was slightly off-putting.

the staff at reception were very accommodating i did not advise them about mobility issues initially but they noticed and offered a room swap. i found feasible places to walk because they advised me where to go. i would definitely recommend this hotel to others. the breakfast had a great choice of options.

The hotel location was ideal. It was within walking distance of many attractions. The breakfast offered a great choice of dishes. I found the staff to be friendly and helpful throughout my stay.
My room seemed more like a standard one than a beautiful. There were a few small maintenance issues. I noticed sellotape on the ceiling and some scratches on the bathroom door paint. The room overall was a bit tired.
