I'll tell her isn't a great location if you want to stay in the old town. It's right around the corner from the clock tower. We had a lovely room with a beautiful balcony that oversaw the clock Tower. The only issue would be that it's very lively in the clock tower area at night and you can hear the party going on until very late. Otherwise the hotel was beautiful and very comfortable. The rooftop bar and pool were nice. And the breakfast was great and the staff was lovely.

Great location within the old town (perhaps a little hectic as right next to the clock tower). Best thing about this hotel was the rooftop and pool. We were traveling as a family of four and the rooms were definitely on the small side, with little space to move around. Cupboards and fridge designed so badly you can’t open the fridge the right way. Only one lift in the building so long waits, plus the cleaning staff use it too with their cleaning trolleys.

Overpriced for the lack of service and attention to the guests. I had to communicate with them numerous times the week before my arrival for transportation. There was no communication upon pickup and the room was not clean. The bathroom had hairs on the wall and the laundry bag had blood. When this was addressed all they said was “sorry”. They had a private event in the rooftop and no food was offered starting at 12pm! The event was at 7pm! Terrible organization, don’t get your moneys worth wouldn’t stay here again, wouldn’t recommend. Glad we only stayed one night

Loud Music Faulty Towers.

1st night I was unable to sleep as what i can only describe as a rave went on above our room. Loud music and banging until well past midnight. When i called to complain I was simply ignored. 2nd night after moving rooms the toilet would not flush. I was told its not an emergency so would need to wait until morning to have someone look at it. The rooftop bar was closed every evening for various private events. The Jacuzzi pool had a foaming mold in it. The rooms had to be requested to be made up every day. The only reason to give 2 stars is the concierge was very helpful and the location was good.
