Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently highlight the hotel's modern appearance and its excellent location, especially convenient for accessing city centre shops and being near Victoria station and only 500 meters from the center. The rooms are well-designed, clean, and although not huge, they come equipped with nice bathrooms, comfy beds and tea and cookie selection. Some guests mentioned that they found better value for the same price. The breakfast is very good, with some gluten-free options available.

an adequate experience

easy check-in friendly staff draft noise dirty spoons

checking in was very easy once done online. breakfast was on point. staff were all very friendly. the location was ideal for shopping and food. the train station was only a few minutes walk from the hotel.

i went to the wrong hotel to begin with. perhaps, guests should be made aware there are two locations. i moved rooms because of a loud squeaking draft noise in our window. the spoons in the first room were dirty

The breakfast offered many choices suitable for different tastes and dietary needs. The ingredients were fresh and tasty. The service staff sometimes struggled to keep the buffet stocked, likely due to staffing issues. the quality and variety made up for it.

I received excessive emails regarding payment and check-in. The system was not properly used after all those email messages.
