The bed was so comfortable. More spacious in the room. Breakfast was ok. Although there was a lot of stains on the carpet . Also during breakfast the option i chose i was told there was no vegetarian sausages as they didnt get their order and prior to coming for breakfast a lady asked if we paying or if its already paid as its expensive to eat at Marco Pierre found it rude. Then the fire alarm rang was escorted towards the stairs to find they was locked. The lift were still working then a member of staff came and said it was a false alarm.

Best of a bad bunch. Worth reading below
I like this hotel because of it's location. However it's getting dated. Clean but chipped furniture etc. The hallways and rooms tend to be very hot and the AC isn't good. Which is why I now book a room with a balcony so I can get fresh air. Other rooms don't have opening windows. They do provide fans. My last stay had 3 fans in the room so that's rather telling. The MPW restaurant on the top floor is good, although the last time they overcooked my steak. Didn't send back as don't like food waste but they did add a discount when I told them. It's fine. But I think the mal Maison next door is stiff competition

Good location lots of restaurants and bars. Also Everyman cinema. The room was modern but had no air conditioning and was very hot all night even with 2 fans. Additional charge for breakfast which was ok for what we received. Overall felt overpriced with having to pay for breakfast and parking. Would have liked a discount for no air conditioning.

A great city centre anniversary break
We stayed one night to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Check in went very smoothly and when we mentioned it was our anniversary we each received vouchers for a complementary drink which was a very nice touch. The room and bed were very comfortable with a view of the city and a large shower cubicle in the bathroom. The only minor minus was the absence of any complementary biscuits. The hotel is in the city centre and so we were able to walk around the centre in the early evening taking in the atmosphere. Both the set evening meal and breakfast were very good sitting at tables with city views and excellent service. We did have to pay £5 more each for the evening window table but as it was our anniversary it was well worth it.

There is no air conditioning in the rooms – they are ridiculously hot…!! The hotel is designed with no opening windows and the room cooling is essentially disabled. This has obviously been an issue for some time as all the rooms have desk fans, but are unbearable to sleep in. No exaggeration 40 degrees. Read the room description carefully and avoid. Not the fault of the staff on the desk, but they are fobbing people off with a story about resetting the system. Breakfast in Marco Pierre White restaurant was superb.

I’m not happy at all when we get to reception the fist thing she ask is when I’m due which I’m not pregnant, Then to be told there’s not spa which dose say on the website it dose. The room was stained on the floor the towels and hair all ova the bathroom tiles. We got woken up to the fire alarm going off to rush out to find it was a files alarm so we ask a member off staff he just laughed in our face I would never stay hear again

Lovely area but rooms are awful
Arrived and checked in ok. Went to the room and found the most pungent eye watering smell of sewage and rotten eggs in the room. Also tried to get the air on to work but it seemed to be on and noisy but no air coming out. The fact that there was already a fan in the room says that the hotel is fully aware. I had to flush the shower and sink for a while to get rid of the smell. Windows don’t open so essentially it was like a sauna. Had a number of cold showers to simply cool off. Reported it downstairs as I went out and the guy on the desk said he would reset the aircon. When I returned later that night I found no change. Slept above the sheets sweating all night. Oh, and the smell was back. In the mornings my daughter was gagging just trying to shower and clean her teeth. Mentioned the issues again on check out but no real acknowledgement of interest. Looking at the reviews it is obvious that the smell and broken aircon is a running theme that the hotel is not interested in fixing. Lovely location and great amenities around but hotel rooms are disgusting and in a poor state of repair.

Faulty air conditioning
Room itself was fabulous, however the air conditioning was faulty meaning the room was suffocatingly hot! I complained to reception who said they could sort it manually. This wasn’t done. I complained again to reception, who again said they would sort it out. When we returned to the hotel after attending a concert 7 hours later the AC still wasn’t working. Another guest had the same issue. Complained again and again nothing was done about it. There was no way of opening a window, so spent the night with only a fan for relief. I complained to the duty manager in the morning who gave us a 25% refund, however I got the impression she didn’t really believe me. It could have been such a different experience, as the room was lovely. We will not stay again

The air conditioning system was broken in all hotel bedrooms, so the request to move to an alternative room was not an option. A standing fan had been placed in the bedroom and operational upon arrival, but being a hot day 29C, it was not helping the situation. I felt the Reception staff should have advised upon Check-in of the problem, and what was being done to resolve. At 11:30pm I requested an additional fan, which was promptly provided. Hotel restaurant on 25th floor had amazing views of the city, and food and beverages were excellent for dinner and breakfast.

A room or a Sauna?
24th floor room has broken air conditioning, windows didnt open, and was not just hot, on one of the hottest days of the year the heat was unbearable. I knew I wouldnt sleep a wink and so managed to get a refund and change hotels, but the only tariff I could find close by was just short of £300. This room wasnt fit for human habitation.
