Great location, very well appointed, hotel that I would readily recommend to others . Nice work.
Pros:

From the outside the hotel looks a little run down , but once inside it was really nicely appointed. Very nice lounges and bars with fabulous views. Very good dining room with good food choices. Staff were likeable and friendly and looked after the guests excellently

Cons:

On the second night the large doors to the dining room were left open and it became quite drafty with cool air
