The hotel was in the perfect location, the rooms were super clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was 10/10. We brought our two dogs with us, and the staff made sure there were bowls and a bed in our room for them (but make sure to let them know in advance if you are bringing a pet). We will definitely be staying again!

Breakfast was varied and scrumptious. I appreciated the onsite parking. But I didn’t know I should have booked it ahead of time. Perhaps I missed that info on the third-party booking site I used.

Hotel located very close to city centre and in quiet area, adjacent to a large park and 5 min walk to Botanical gardens. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Limited car parking available. Modern glass lift to 4th floor. Breakfast adequate with cooked and cold foods and plenty of coffee. Dinner very limited in choice. Room 411 was in the attic with very small window but an electric fan was provided, upon arrival the room was stifling hot.

Lovely staff, great location, thoughtful touches in the hotel like cosy seating areas with blankets. My room was perfect, and looked out onto the cathedral spires. I was very happy to see plant-based milk and butter at breakfast with a few other vegan additions too. Highly recommend and I’d definitely go back.

Lovely staff, facilities, room and location. Within site of the glorious church and walking distance to almost everything. The only thing that could be improved is access to charging for electric cars. There is a charger but it was blocked by cars that were not charging during my whole stay. Not a dealbreaker because of all the other advantages including gracious and helpful staff, but I mention as it would have been perfect to have access to the level 2 charger. Thank you for the very nice stay in your beautiful city!
