Everything was very good except for the lack of air conditioning.
Pros:

The location was good for us. The room was spacious and comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and included a tub and separate shower.

Cons:

It doesn’t have air conditioning. The three days we stayed were during a heat wave that made the room uncomfortable during the day and into the night.

Pros:

Mooi en rustig hotel, fijne buitenterrassen. Ontbijt is echt heel goed met naast het buffet ook nog a la carte keuzes. Vriendelijke medewerkers. Fijn balkonnetje aan mijn kamer (single room). Vlakbij university parks waar je fijn kan wandelen.

Cons:

Dikke vloerbedekking in een hotelkamer vind ik persoonlijk best onhygiënisch.

Great hotel, terrible heatwave
Pros:

Great location, beautiful Hotel with a true english style. Breakfast was also very nice, got to order different meals every day, including full english.

Cons:

We stayed during a heat wave, in the top floor, and the rooms don’t have a/c, so we struggled a lot during the nights. Room became boiling hot (not the hotel’s fault the weather was ridiculous, but still).

An interesting time was had by all in our party of six and once we found our bearings, and realised what the City has to
Pros:

Its history is interesting but in future, it will need money spent on it to retain its four star rating.

Cons:

No lift!

Hotel was fine but expensive for what we experienced...took the money before we even arrived?
Pros:

Breakfast was fairly average...the location was great.

Cons:

Room was very hot ...had no air conditioning although we did have a fan...could have done with a sheet as duvet was too warm for the temperature.
