4/10 Poor

Not worth the money. My chabata was not fresh, on 2 evening. On first evening I asked for a toastie, I was given 2 slices of toast with cheese & tomato, not my idea of a toastie, not impressed at all would not go back. A complete outrage £100 for room only

8/10 Good

I stayed for a few nights on a work trip. The room was lovely and the restaurant has a good selection of food. There were some problems with internet access one evening, but Caroline was amazing and went over and above to sort out the problem for us. She was brilliant.

Hot Days

Enjoyed our stay except for the room on the 4th floor. It was like a sauna due to the high daily temperature and the proximity to the roof. Could do with some fans at night if the temperatures are mid 20's. Otherwise eveything else was great.
Stephen, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

The elevator wasn’t working and the rooms were uncomfortably warm
jennifer, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

A little underwhelmed

On the plus side, food in the bar was good, tasty and well presented. The room was comfortable and clean. However, service was somewhat hit and miss. Some of the staff were rather abrupt and unfriendly. I feel that the place could be better organised, and could probably do with a decor update too. Not sure if I would call it a 4 star experience, even though we paid a 4 star price!
