Great Hotel, in a great place

As always our stay was brilliant. This is now the 4th time I have stayed at this hotel. The only thing I would like to see and this is a personal choice is a few more bread options for breakfast, like bagels for example (even more so when there is a big sporting event like the marathon weekend or half marathon weekend). Apart from that, everything was spot on as always.

Perfectly acceptable room, USB sockets would be nice and plugs on both sides of the bed too. Bathroom sink plug operation was so stiff it was virtually unusable. Breakfast well organised although they really need to fix the leaky coffee machine! Nice touch of an offer of free toiletries although as it turned out there were no combs - need to deliver if you make this type of promise!
