Good location
Pros:

Centrally located but not on Riverwalk. Has had a refurb which on the face of it is quite flash but details like finishes could be better. Very comfy beds. Appreciated the kettle in the room. Lobby bar is lovely

Cons:

The vinyl thing is a bit of a gimmick, every room has a record player but it’s right by the headboard of the next room so we could always hear the music through the wall. There was a big wedding party who were very noisy with this at 2am. Bathroom very small. There is an Open wardrobe with almost no space - just a rail. Could hear all the street noise - it’s like the windows were open when they weren’t.

Pros:

Reception staff was very friendly, new decor was nice and we really enjoyed our vinile record in the room. And it was comfy

Cons:

It was dirty in our bathroom and some hairs on the floor. I tried to tell cleaning lady but she didn’t speak any English and after she’s been it was no cleaner. Floors were filthy, asked for hard pillow she brought me soft one lol
Some of the stuff was falling off, it was freezing in common areas so impossible to use them unless you wear winter clothes. No coffee machine, bathrooms are small

We have already told friends about The Gunter, and we will definitely return
Pros:

Breakfast was fabulous, and the service was unbelievable. The second morning we were there, the young lady remembered the type of toast each liked and had ordered the previous morning. She made quite a good impression.

Cons:

Can not think of anything.

Beautiful and comfortable. Great, thoughtful staff.
Pros:

It was a beautiful hotel. The lobby smelled great and I loved the decor/furniture. The Jots restaurant was equally beautiful. Our room was beautifully remodeled. I loved the smell and quality of the toiletries.

Cons:

My only complaint is that the mini fridge did not freeze very well. I had to freeze an ice pack for breastmilk since I was away from home.
