The Potential was good for this hotel, but unfortunately I had a room that was really hot and no fan available, on top of this when I opened the window it led onto the back of the hotel where there was some kind of service entrance where deliveries were made and it was noisy.

Great hotel, lovely staff who were all very welcoming, lots going on. The only small downside being that it does need a bit of a refurb in the rooms. But other than that it was all good, and we would stay there again.

Service we also spent money to go to a show .. show ok food basic quality

Hotel was nice enough and the staff really friendly, however two things stood out and affected my visit. The drain in the shower stunk, and I had to keep the bathroom light on so the fan would dull the smell. During breakfast the ladies who were lovely, asked if I wanted a tea or coffee, I would respond, they would then forget and this happened 3 or 4 times and didn’t end up receiving the coffee. I think this hotel potential had a grand past, but its quite tired now.

It was a last minute booking so hadn’t expected it to be so nice. Room and en-suite were large, modern and clean. The staff were lovely! Very helpful and pleasant. The only downside to our stay was the breakfast. Terrible! We only had it once the other morning we had breakfast out as it was so bad! If they could fix that it would be a 5!!

I found this stay a bit hit and miss. I was first given a room with an unbearably smelly bathroom and unsafe shower (no temperature control and part missing). I mentioned this to reception on way out next morning and on my return in afternoon it appeared nothing had been actioned, so i was given an alternative room which was much better and i would have been happy to extend my stay in the second room. The breakfast was alright, choice ok but nothing outstanding. Coffee was luke warm on 3 out of 4 cups. One of the waiters (Elizabeth) at breakfast was outstanding and an absolute credit to the hotel. Its clear the hotel has done a lot of work to make it comfortable and accessible but this currently looks quite hotch potch with some areas looking more moden than others, it will be interesting to see this hotel in a few years time.
