A great location and well designed, clean rooms. Very friendly and helpful staff.

LikedExcellent location, great interior design, fantastic large beds, great views from the roof bar. The staff were also incredibly helpful.

DislikedThe gym was a bit small and the pool is pretty badly designed so we didn’t bother using it, which is a shame because that was a significant reason for choosing this hotel - you cannot swim laps as it is too short and its only wide enough for 1 person.
