Room 102. Conveniently located but far too noisy. Woken up at 4am by neighbours using the loo. Not acceptable. Nice bar area and good restaurant. If you have a choice, stay in the older part of the building.

Overall Good Hotel

Good staff and a nice hotel although we found the room quite dark and bathroom dated. However, it was clean and comfortable. Food in the lounge bar was very good. Parking good too and electric charge points available.
