Small criticism. For two people in a twin room, I thought one single pack of 3 biscuits was somewhat stingy.

Some features of the room are dated, particularly in the bathroom. No hot water in the bathroom in the morning for a shower. Air con system was unreliable, maximum fan speed setting seemed very weak with little air flow and temperature regulation was poor. On the plus side, twin beds were very comfortable (subjective I know). They were Hypnos mattresses. Great views over the river and having a balcony was a bonus! The room was a good size, clean and quiet over night so all said and done not too bad as I paid a very competitive rate

Lovely hotel located on the river away from the noise of the city. Great room and nice extra touches like bathrobes and water in the fridge. The bathroom is somewhat dated but the bedroom felt modern and had a really comfy bed. Really nice breakfast staff, so attentive to food allergies, particularly Elizabeth. Would definitely return to this hotel
