Everything was excellent and lovely staff. Only thing that stopped us giving 5* was the breakfast, which was nice, but choice on buffet bar was a limited for that standard of hotel.

Stayed here for my birthday. The rooms are arty and dark, gorgeous interior. The front desk receptionist had 2 glasses of complimentary champagne sent to the room which was a lovely touch and I had a ‘happy 30th birthday’ plate in the room which was covered in fruit and chocolates. The only let down was the breakfast, for what you pay for it was minimal, wasn’t very hot and a very slow service. It wasn’t too busy so would have expected a faster service.
