Very standard

Clearly set up for business travel with a huge desk taking pride of place in the room. The area is not very busy at the weekend. Couldn't make us a cup of tea in the evening at the bar.

Excellent front desk staff. We were early for check in and had to wait for the room and they ended up giving us a larger room. A mini fridge in the room would have been a nice addition.

Great Hotel, in a great place

As always our stay was brilliant. This is now the 4th time I have stayed at this hotel. The only thing I would like to see and this is a personal choice is a few more bread options for breakfast, like bagels for example (even more so when there is a big sporting event like the marathon weekend or half marathon weekend). Apart from that, everything was spot on as always.

Liked it. It was a peaceful area and had good vibes there. Breakfast was nice. A bit inconvenient that you have to park in a multi storey car park but I guess not their fault.
