Wouldn't stay again.
Pros:

Location to the city centre was great, only a small walking distance to the sky tower and restaurants.
Room was nice and bed was comfortable

Cons:

The bathroom needed a good deep clean - around the edges of the shower and the shower head was quite disgusting.

The staff were not very friendly, very short with their answers. Each time we walked in to the hotel and exited we were not greeted - the staff simply lifted theor head up looked at us and carried on with what they were doing, no acknowledgement at all.

Okay but could have been better
Pros:

Good location

Cons:

No late night room service during a major concert seemed odd, streaming to TV didn't work reliably. Spent the time to tell them of the issues and no response.

Basic and ok on a special deal. Solid location - great for concerts etc
Pros:

Comfy bed. Good lighting

Buffet was running low on food / cutlery and no one really checking. No one asked us if we’d like coffee extra etc for a long time.

Comfortable, central and a good hotel. Would stay again.
Pros:

Great location, centrally located. Good, reputable hotel chain. Room service food was tasty and promptly arrived. I was there for work so only in hotel at night.

Cons:

The bathroom extractor fan was quite noisy and could not be turned off
