The room I was given was very clean when I got it and the location was very peaceful especially after a long day out. I would definitely recommend the hotel if there are no issues with walking quite a fair bit to train stations. An overall great place to stay

Lovely property! Super clean, very modern and close to lots of transport. Lovely views, and good amenities close by. My only issue was the WiFi, it was really bad, so made conference calls for work difficult. But aside from that, would recommend this hotel

It was a little hard to find tucked in behind other buildings. Across the street from the art and science museums. Good newer hotel. The only issue we had was that the dryers didn’t work very well and took forever.
