We arrived on the train so it was lovely that the hotel was only 5 minutes away from the station. The staff on reception were very welcoming and knowledgeable. Our room was beautifully furnished with the added bonus of the complimentary contents of the mini fridge being topped up every day. The breakfast menu was great and the food delicious (the only slight quibble here was the speed of service once it had been ordered). Finally, the hotel is in a great location: we could walk to everywhere we wanted to go.

Nice hotel in great location. Lovely room facing the road so do expect some noise from the trams and cars but didn’t bother us and earplugs are provided complimentary. We had issue with our tv but thus was promptly rectified. Staff were all lovely and friendly and breakfast was very good. Would definitely return to this hotel.

The hotel staff were very attentive and friendly and let us check in earlier than advertised, after we asked if we could check in our bags. The included breakfast was top notch, with many different choices and cooked to order hot options! The room was clean, shower, bathroom and bed were good. We were given complementary items in our mini fridge which was a nice touch. Unfortunately the towel rail in the bathroom was on all the time which we thought was unnecessary. Some of the fixtures were loose and around one socket, there was sellotape holding the wallpaper together. The TV while a good size was very slow and unresponsive. I'm a bit disappointed based on the cost of the room.
