The room wasn’t spotless but it was clean. Staff were lovely. Purely for feedback purposes the reception isn’t that easy to find if you enter from the mailbox car parking side.

Hotel staff make you feel really welcome!

The staff were amazing every part of the hotel. So kind and lovely to guests greeting them at every opportunity. The bar atmosphere is so engaging and the dj was brilliant. The views are splendid! Unfortunately the Air con was flashing error upon entry but room at that time felt ok but by time I got back late the room was so cold and there was no one on reception to ask for help to see to the error so I had to use the tiny electric radiator which did not warm up the whole room. Having shower caps available would have been so useful.

Quiet Hotel near waterfront.

Nice room, really handy for the waterfront establishments and the Mailbox. Easy walk to Grand Central station and the Bull Ring. Only problem is the air conditioning does not work, however we were provided with an electric fan without any hassle. Would recommend and would use again.

Disappointed

As soon as I got out of the lift I realised this was not what I was hoping for. THE most uncomfortable bed too; so soft and saggy. Shame as in a good location.

Not great, tv wouldn’t work and we had planned an early dinner followed by relaxing in front of tv. No one could get hold of decaf tbags after 3 attempts of delivery decaf coffee, then earl grey then ordinary bags. Offered to move us but timing was not great
