Lovely hotel
Pros:

Very big hotel with lots of space in the bar, restaurant and entertainment areas. Good location in the North Promenade with tram stops directly outside the hotel. It also had a pool, jacuzzi pool and steam room which we took advantage of.

Cons:

Other than front of house/dining/entertainment areas on the ground floor, the rest of the hotel was pretty old fashioned and dated. This didn't cause any issues but would look lovely after a modernisation programme. My bed wasn't particularly comfy and would benefit from new mattresses.
