Disappointing Stay – Definitely Not a “Family Room”
I booked a Family Room with 1 King Bed, but there was absolutely nothing “family-sized” about it. The room was standard at best—there’s no way an average-sized family could comfortably stay there. Only two cans of water were provided, which was disappointing.
The room was cold due to poorly insulated windows that let in a constant draft. I set the air con to 26°C, but it only produced a weak breeze with no heat whatsoever. A small electric heater was provided (clearly they know how cold the rooms get), but using it alongside the kettle caused a power cut. I was advised to only use one appliance at a time—unacceptable for a hotel at this price point.
The hotel itself is extremely busy during exhibitions, and the bar is understaffed, making it a struggle to get served.
For £214 per night, this was absolutely not worth it.
