Lovely hotel in a great location
Pros:

Fantastic location beside the train station. Quick checkin process & while our room was not ready, our luggage was taken promptly off us & stored for later.
Friendly & efficient staff. We were on the 2d/b/b deal & while a slightly reduced dinner menu choice, the food was of a very high quality. Great breakfasts in the Gaslight Brasserie. As we went early in the week, dinner was served in the McNeill bar downstairs, not the same dining experience that I have experienced before in the lovely Gaslight Brasserie upstairs!
All in all a most enjoyable stay. I would certainly recommend this hotel to others
