Smart hotel

Very smart hotel, with a lovely room with a very comfortable bed and excellent shower. The only slight criticism of the room was dust on the mirror and the LED lights switches are so bright, it makes it difficult to sleep due to the light they emit. Fantastic breakfast. The underground car park was a bonus.

short stay.

My room, 2031, was small but adequate. For a small room the TV was too large but not a problem to complain about. Breakfasts were great with a good display and choices. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful.

Faultless stay

Very enjoyable 3 night stay. Room much bigger than anticipated and very nice to have a coffee machine for which the capsules were replenished when needed. Excellent breakfast with fresh, good quality products. The hotel was quiet, despite being only a few minutes walk from the station and town centre.
