The location puts you right in the heart of things, and I appreciated the quiet rooms, a welcome respite. I would say the breakfast, enhanced by thoughtful music and conversation, is a highlight that sets the tone for a great stay.”

A Romantic Getaway

drink selection friendly staff great location
I found the bar features an amazing selection of drinks with fifteen different taps. I also saw a good selection of spirits and wines on display. Staff members were very friendly and helpful, assisting us throughout our stay. I would 100% recommend this location. I cannot wait to return soon.
The window did not shut completely, and it was quite noisy. We could not fall asleep until 3 a.m. due to the external noise.

spacious room comfortable bed plentiful sockets small bottle no body wash no housekeeping
the room was spacious and the bathroom also had a good size. tea making facilities were available , i found the bed comfortable. there were plentiful sockets , which was convenient for charging devices.
the hand-wash was provided in only one small bottle , the same applied to shampoo and body lotion. there was no body wash provided , that was quite inconvenient. only one toilet roll was available and there was no housekeeping on the second day to refresh any products.
