Lovely stay
Pros:

Hotel location is great. Lots of positives. Room wasn’t huge but very clean with comfy bed and tea/coffee making facilities. It was a warm evening and I welcomed having a fan in the room and windows being open to air the space before our arrival.

Cons:

Its not a dislike really, its just the it’s just the flip side of being so central for anyone considering a stay. It can be noisy late at night and there’s a night club opposite but it doesn’t go on into the wee small hours. If that’s a worry don’t book a room with a view of St James Park. 😊

Pros:

Having a good restaurant as part of the hotel

Cons:

No parking to drop off cases. No hot water for showers in the afternoon. Size of "family room" was small. Could not imagine a family to be able to fit. The lighting was below standard
