I loved everything about this hotel apart from the plumbing emanating from room next door - a wee bit noisy but would guess it may only affect a few rooms Also the air con did not switch in to heat mode - again badly needed the night I stayed However. overall a lovely central hotel with caring homely touches

Nice room. Spa broken long enough to make a laminated sign to say so. There was a wedding reception on we had no idea about until check-in below our room with music til midnight. One staff member was going to come see us and tell us where to park. I guess he got lost. Told us we had Netflix, nope... not high on my list for next time.
