Better when Hotel Brooklyn

I have stayed at the Voco and before when it was Hotel Brooklyn. The staff are great from check-in to the service at the bar and restaurant. Threr is however something that changed when the hotel changed from the Brooklyn to the Voco. The rooms are great and the hotel is modern and well kept. Its the menu in the restaurant thats a bit of a let down now though. When as Brooklyn the menu offered some asian influenced small plates and on the whole had more choice. The current menu is ok but is no different from any other hotel. a hotel as good as this deserves a bit more character. The beers can also be a bit flat on occasion. I would however always come back to the Voco.

Nice hotel, poor service

Stayed here last night. The hotel was modern and nice, but the service was poor. I was told I could only eat in the bar lobby as the restaurant was booked for an event. Later, the bar closed, and I was told to order drinks from the restaurant, only to be confronted by the event hosts and asked to leave. Mentioned this at checkout, but all I got was a quick apology. Poor organisation and customer care ruined the experience.

Lovely hotel, room was 10/10, good value. However quite thin walls, you could hear the chairs scraping on other floors (probably from the restaurant) which woke me up. Bathroom fan also ridiculously loud and annoying. Restaurant food was sub-par, slightly disappointing, the dishes did not match what was on the menu, definitely not worth the price. Staff were great and breakfast was lovely.

An excellent hotel - beautiful decor , attentive and welcoming staff and lovely restaurant area . Good breakfast selection too. Worthwhile to pre- book parking as spaces are limited but the car park is clean , safe and secure . I would highly recommend staying here and will return myself .
