I had a truly wonderful stay at this hotel and couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, everything was smooth, comfortable, and welcoming. A special thank-you to the concierge team, especially Sam and Sal, who went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. They were friendly, attentive, and always ready to help with recommendations and arrangements. Their professionalism and kindness really made a difference and added a personal touch to the stay.

Room is fine. Arrived at 1.30am, beyond tired, enquired about breakfast and was told No and pointed to the lifts. Does this mean they don't do breakfast? You can't add it at the point of checking in? I guess i'll never know as i wouldn't want to come bqck.

I had originally requested a bath, I reminded reception when I arrived and was told it would have to be a single bed, so I agreed as I have back problems. I had an awful night due to the sunken matress. I looked at the matress and it looked old and there was a topper. I layed out 3 pillows on the matress in order to sleep. I had a flight at 9am the next morning, I had an awful night. I told reception in the morning and was told this would be passed on, to this date I have not heard anything. I have a foto of this bed.
