So welcoming from the outside. Convenient site. There is no interaction with staff as everything is self check-in and check- out, however there was a pleasant girl at reception who spoke politely as we left. The rooms and bedding are clean but the carpets need attention. There was a damp smell in hall. I would stay again for location and convenience.

Had a lovely stay at the Flint hotel. First of all, it’s so well located, right by City Hall at the centre of things. Staff were lovely and so helpful, always a hello. The room was perfect, I loved having a kitchenette and it was stocked well - nice touch having dishwasher tablets! The bed was so comfy and a wonderful range of different pillows meant a lot. Bathroom was spotless and a big thumbs up to the large shower and free toiletries. Overall I would throughly recommend staying at the Flint hotel and will definitely be back again.
