Was not made to feel welcomed when arrived and was not been made aware that they would hold £50 from my bank card upon arrival. We have stayed at way more nicer/expensive hotels which have not asked up to do this. The room had 2 TVs but only 1 remote so when you switched one off the other came on. To watch you had to unplug a TV. The heating didnt work you had to phone up to get it put on despite there been a control in the room. The coffee machine didn't work and the cups was dirty. The floor was ridiculous unlevel felt like been on a boat. The window didn't close properly so was drafty . For the money we paid it was not worth it.

Excellent all round - location is run down and a little way off the city centre(although railway buffs would find it interesting as it's at the site of the old Sheffielf Victoria station. The old station approach walls have displays connected to the hotel and station). The hotel is a superb place to stay not least because of the staff.

Great hotel, friendly and helpful staff. Clean room, good sized bath - you can lay down it it and I’m 5’9”. So nice to have a bathroom that is for tall people. Great experience we will return

Polite reception staff . Clean hotel. Clean rooms. Had 2 free bottles of mineral water one still one sparkling ready waiting for me. Plenty of tea bags and coffee and hot choc in the room. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff. When I got back from the Paul Weller concert at midnight it was boiling . Matthew at the front desk got me a pint of iced cold water to take to my room. What a gentleman. It’s little touches like this that can make a guest choose to stay again.

Very expensive for tiny rooms. They even charge for parking which is beyond ridiculous given how expensive the rooms are. The lift was broken and we were allocated a room on the fourth floor !

Reception team is very good, easy and friendly check in and out, great chatting with Klaudia on the check out. Dinning was slightly different, my starter (hake) was not good, had a smell of ammonia, didn’t eat as it didn’t seem to be in good condition, we didn’t get a check back on the starters and when I told the young waitress that the hake was not good, nobody checked with us and the issue didn’t get acknowledged or a simple apology was made, when I said that it had a ammonia smell and taste the reply was “ok”. My cousin’s main “aubergine” was hard to take of the skin, taste was good just a little under, no biggie there just some feedback. The rest of the meal was good, the chicken main and the desserts were very nice. Table maintenance was a little of hit and miss, at one stage we had 8 glasses on a table of 2 guests, doesn’t matter to be honest we just settled them on the side ledge for the rest of the meal, i hope you don’t take the comments as harsh, just honest feedback that I believe you should be aware of. For the money that you mark your restaurant up, needs a little better care Again thank you, reception team an absolute credit to your team (everyone we dealt with) and the hotel and facilities were very clean. Kind regards

Staff were lovely. We had the suite with the bath in the room and it was great. We had a problem with the tv, the staff tried to fix it but couldn’t which was unfortunate but there were two tvs in the room anyway. They did apologise and gave us a complimentary bottle of champagne and two cocktails, they also refunded the parking for us. Great stay, will definitely return.

Property is wonderful, clean comfortable rooms. Incredible staff and amazing restaurants. I felt very comfortable there and would recommend. Only drawback is the area - although it is where many hotels are situated. It isn't the best area for walking, other restaurants, cafe's etc.

Great hotel and service - Victorian Suite awful
Stayed as a large group attending an event at the arena, booked lots of rooms including the Victorian Suite. All the staff are amazing, the service is excellent and the bar etc are great…..most rooms are lovely except the suite which is dire!

Just average Hotel
Nice hotel and the greeting from the reception staff on check in and check out is exceptional. The rest is a little disjointed. The poor man on the bar was running around trying to get things sorted as the bar wasnt stocked up properly for him and this was only 3.30pm in the afternoon just simple things like no teaspoons for the coffee etc. The bedrooms are really cold and extremely noisey from road traffic outside I had very little sleep from the road traffic noise and that's with my window shut, a need for triple glazing is required. There were 4 of us staying in individual rooms and we all said the exact same. It could be a fabulous hotels with some changes made

Due to a booking problem (ours not the hotel). We thought our first room was really nice but on our 3rd night we were moved and our second room was terrible. Cold dirty-cobwebs in several area including several across the mirror which was also very dusty. Mood in the bathroom It was nota pleasant stay
