We had a fantastic stay at a hotel near the music hall, with clean rooms and friendly staff. The breakfast had a lot of choices and the restaurant and lounge areas were clean and lovely.
Nothing that we didn't like.
We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in the city center. The location was perfect, with easy access to shops, eateries, and theaters. We found limited free parking at the rear of the hotel, and there was also a convenient multi-story car park just a 2-minute walk away. The staff were exceptional, friendly, and always willing to help. They made us feel welcomed, especially with our dog. The breakfast had a good selection and the food was hot. The room was clean and tidy, and the bed and pillows were comfortable. The bathroom was immaculate, and soap and shower gel were provided.
Not obvious to find.
We had a great stay at this hotel. The staff was extremely friendly and allowed us to check in early, which was really convenient. The room was spotless and had a fresh and inviting atmosphere. The bed was very comfy, perfect for someone like me with a bad back. The shower was nice, and the towels provided were large and fluffy. The breakfast buffet had a wide variety of options, including fresh fruit, yogurt, eggs, and pastries. We particularly enjoyed the coffee machine, which we were also able to use throughout the day in the lobby. The hotel's location, just around the corner from the harbor, was ideal for us. It was also very close to Union Street, where we found plenty of shops and places to eat. Additionally, there were supermarkets like Tesco and Sainsbury's just a short walk away.
Nothing that we didn't like.
The hotel's location just away from the centre was perfect for evening entertainment, with numerous pubs and restaurants nearby. The staff were very professional, friendly, and polite. The breakfast offered a variety of options, including cereal, fruit, and cooked dishes. The rooms were exceptionally clean, and the beds were very comfortable.
Nothing, all great.
