Loved the hotel, staff and the breakfast and bar were great. Only dropping one star because my room didn't have a window so my body clock was kind of cooked and I kept waking up not knowing what time it was.

Stayed one night in an internal room which was a bit dated & could hear water in the pipes when people used their bathroom above. Hotel very central & close to lots of shops & dining options.
