A fabulous hotel in a great central location. The staff make it very special.
Pros:

Everything. The staff, the room. Gosh that bed was so comfortable. It was quiet and the room was so big.
The cocktail on the house was the icing on the cake. Plus the breakfast was delicious. Couldn’t fault the hotel at all. Definitely a 10 out of 10.

Cons:

Nothing!

Perfect stay, will be back
Pros:

We have just had a wonderful two days here and will definitely return.
The hotel is modern, clean and in a great location. Very easy to walk to all of the places we wanted to visit around the city centre.
Twin room was huge and really lovely, comfortable, clean and had everything we could’ve wanted, complimentary water, tea, coffee, biscuits. There’s an iron and board and hairdryer also fridge and safe. (slightly odd couples pictures on the Walls if I’m honest 😂).
The staff were all friendly and could not have done more for us on reception, bar and restaurant. Restaurant in particular the staff were amazing and went out of their way to make two nights meals fantastic. Great food too.
Definitely recommend the hotel and we definitely be back.

Felt a bit tired, not moved with the times
Pros:

Food is good

Cons:

The young man who checked me in after my partner had already checked in said “you could be anybody” which I thought was a bit strange.

I’ve not stayed here for about 10 years when I used to stay regularly. It felt a bit dated to be honest. The bar feels very old fashioned and the room didn’t feel very cosy. I think I preferred the Hyatt that I stayed in last weekend which felt fresher and better quality, but the bar there is not very good.

Great hotel, but noise was disappointing
Pros:

Fabulous hotel in a very central location. The bar is lovely and staff were very helpful.

Cons:

I would have rated our stay 5 stars but had some noise issues due to a very loud party going on in another room on the 5th floor on the Saturday night of our stay. They were eventually asked to leave by staff. The second night we had no issues.
