Disrupted stay

Disappointed with how the hotel handled a fire alarm fault at 1am. There was no information offered by staff when guests assembled at reception. Staff seemed fo be scrambling. Guests making noise and playing loud music in room next to ours and don’t feel this was handled well either. At breakfast the next morning I overheard a guest asking for information in relation to needed a doctor and floor manager did not seem to be aware of options available in the vicinity (I was from the area so could advise of a walk in GP service across from hospital) . Staff need to be better briefed in handling such situations.

This is a very nice hotel, with very generous sized rooms and comfortable beds. It is a little bit dated. It did not have, for example, USB ports for charging your devices, and the shower was a little bit odd. Otherwise the amenities were very nice. The bar and restaurant were excellent. Both dinner and breakfast were very good. They were not cheap, but were decent value.

ZERO for the Twelve

Checked-in to a tired-looking lobby. Bags and trolleys everywhere, unattended. Requested dinner at WEST - closed. Room had been "cleaned" but had human hairs still clearly visible on beds and dirt & dust on head-board, chairs, floor, bathroom. No food available on return from sightseeing at 9pm - not even room service. Massage reserved had been "forgotten"... just didn't bother to correctly note reservation.... Hotel staff in loud conversation outside my room late at night preventing sleep. I had stayed at this hotel previously and was content to overlook certain shortcomings - but no more. Shame on The Twelve.
