Pros:

Staff and location were great. It has clearly just been renovated so it is super comfortable and modern. It was great value for money compared to other options we looked at of a similar standard.

Cons:

Nothing really. The bathroom is quite small but that is a feature of maintaining the heritage of the property.

Excellent
Pros:

Comfortable beds, Amazing staff and facilities. The gym and recovery centre are incredible for a hotel.
It was a really nice trip.

Only slight issue was casting to the TV wasn't working often so I'd suggest taking a HDMI cable if you go just in case. I have this problem everywhere I go though and usually have a HDMI for this purpose.

Poor experience for business travel
Pros:

Location is good

Cons:

I was given an accessible room for a business trip. Completely unsuitable. No desk or bench space, bathroom was more like a hostel than a high end brand hotel.
Uncomfortable bed, thin walls, noisy fridge, toilet running all night. Couldn’t wait to get out of there and I will not be back

Pros:

Beautiful hotel. Good location. Awesome breakfast and friendly staff.

Cons:

I don't like dealing with machines all the time. I am not fan of self-service kiosks everywhere.
Light on the ground (motion sensor) and light flashing from AC control unit on the wall are annoying.

The hotel charged me twiced, despite I had reservation confirmed and money had already been deducted from CC before arrival; the hotel charged me again during check-out.
Solution is underway, but with their standard, I found unbelievable that it was me who had to prove the double charge.
