Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable, but the noisy air conditioning was a downside. The service was excellent with room service available, but the price was a bit high for the value. The location was convenient near the local station, but a bit of a walk to the nearest tube station. The dining options were inclusive and even provided gluten-free bread, which was a nice touch, though I was craving more variety. However, the facilities were top-notch and well-maintained.
Staying at this hotel was a real treat! The room had a great power shower, the breakfast was amazing, and the huge king-size bed was incredibly comfy. However, having a shower over the bath instead of a walk-in shower was a minor inconvenience.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were nicely refurbished, but the shower over the bath was a letdown. The air conditioning, although noisy, worked well. The service was decent with room service available, but pet amenities were lacking. The location near a local station was convenient, but the pub ambiance may not suit everyone's taste. The included dining options, like gluten-free bread, were a nice touch, but the toasted sandwiches were underwhelming. The facilities were adequate, but improvements could be made for a better overall stay.
The hotel has great power showers and very comfortable king-size beds, but the pub downstairs can get overcrowded at times. My stay was truly comfortable and relaxing with such cozy beds and the refreshing power shower. However, the pub downstairs got a bit overcrowded, making it a bit noisy sometimes.
