on the slide

I have stayed in The Cube on quite a frequent basis but i fear my most recent will be the last. What has happened at The Cube? my first room was ...... lets say grubby not a good start with the dirty footprints on the bathroom floor but the cables hanging from the back of the TV just gave the impression that nobody cares, but the final straw for that room (which is in effect a glass box with no opening windows was the failure of the air conditioning leaving the room like a sauna. On request for an alternative room I was told it wouldn't make a difference because none of the rooms had working air-con. But at least I would have a TV........ I thought but no, this one would not switch on. By now I just couldn't be bothered anymore. So if you like an evening of wondering around the city and then back to a hothouse to watch youtube on your phone this place would be fantastic..... for everyone else, give it a miss.

NO AC in the Hotel - Rooms are a SAUNA.

The hotel had no AC and the room was like a sauna. There were 2 fans but all they did was blow warm air. Went to Reception to complain and was told all rooms were like that due to facing the sun. Was offered a refund and told to find alternative accomodation which wasnt great service. Then I was told that the Hotel hasnt had AC in the rooms for 2 years and that explained it. Will never come back here, there should have been a disclaimer on the website at time of booking as I would have arranged an alternative hotel.

Hot and hotter

The room was ridiculously hot. Air con didnt work in mine and colleagues room. As rooms on 23/24 floor can understand why you can't open windows. There was also no cold water in the taps. It was either hot or hotter. Shower was very poweful if you could deal with the 3rd degree burns. Rest of the place is good with a great breakfast and roof top bath

No air conditioning and the rooms are too hot, everyone complaining. The hotel knows this, but don't plan on fixing it. No windows to open, only a fan if you request it, which is loud and just blows hot air around. Rooms are showing signs of neglect, like worn out fixtures and TV remote broke, tarnished bathroom fittings etc Will we return to this hotel in the future - "Not a Chance"

Air con breaks don’t stay if the weather is good

Do not stay here if it is remotely warm outside. The air con was not working and hadn’t been for a few days. The room was unbearable hot and I got almost no sleep. On speaking to another guest it wasn’t the first time either. Fans provided just push hot air around as the floor to ceiling windows act as a greenhouse and make it far hotter than outside. Whilst the lady on reception did her best to help, the male receptionist was very rude to me when I spoke with him and another guest.

FURNACE!!!!!

Absolutely awful . The whole building was like a furnace, i was given a fan for my room and it didn't make a slight bit of positive difference. The bed two poor quality singles pushed together with a huge dip in the middle. Overall the worst stay in a hotel i have had for a long time and i stay in hotels weekly

Rude reception staff. Non communicative when there was mix up with my reservation. Had to call Expedia myself (who were brilliant). Also had no aircon in ALL the rooms (their answer was "we don't state we have aircon"). Not great when the windows don't open! Left and found somewhere with the most basic amenities.

Reception staff on arrival rude and sarcastic esp Reception Manager. No air conditioning. Had two rooms one had average air con the other none. Lack of air con not highlighted by staff. Could have been managed so much better. Room phone not working. Took 2 hours for second fan to arrive. Cold water tap regularly issued hot water. So, a number of HSE issues. Left after 1 of 3 nights. Reception staff on second day much more helpful. Went to Hotel du Vin which was first class.

Hotel was great, nice rooms and bar etc but air conditioning wasn’t working and no cold water flowing through the shower only very hot water. When discussed with hotel staff on reception, they were rather rude to customers.
