Not a nice welcome

Pros:

I think this is one of our favourite Marriott Hotels. The room is spacious and very clean. The location was perfect and the car parking was great too. My favourite is the interior of the hotel - I love how historic the building is.

Cons:

The only thing that we didn’t like was that we weren’t able to have an early check-in even if we’re a member

Honestly,cannot fault the location, architecture, food or staff at this regal looking hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast buffet was lovely. Top quality. The decor was well done with rich jewel tones. Art work was tasteful. Staff was charming.

Cons:

There was places need touch paint in hallways and some furniture was scratched deep enough to immediately notice. Parking was quite pricey but much needed for the weekend.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great central location with plenty of on-site parking. Good size bedroom for a city centre hotel.
