I particularly enjoy tea and coffee being brought to table at breakfast. Rooms are lovely. Nice touch with complementary drinks in fridge. So comfortable chilling with cocktail in reception area.
Great hotel. It has become my go-to for work trips. Only complaint is the gym doesnt open until 7am, so if you need to get onto the city, you cannot work out on the morning. Room could benefit from a coat hook, but overall a very good place to stay.

Suite was incredible, staff were fantastic, worth every penny
Room was clean and spacious, plenty of heaters, walls are a bit thin so the noise from the club comes through but really the only con here lived everything else
