Absolutely loved this hotel, already want to return. Room was spotless and the bed was so comfortable. The rooftop bar is lovely and the views are brilliant. Great place to base yourself, a small walk to the main streets and a very luxurious and comfy hotel.

When staying at this hotel make sure you ask for the opposite side to Railway station. Stayed for 1 night & distribution from railway station throughout the night & early hours of the morning, impact quality of sleep. Hotel overall is lovely but quality of sleep is poor. They provided earplugs in room , which don’t help at all.

Not a great night sleep

Our stay Started off very strong. But failed at the service in the hotels restaurant. Very very slow. Other customers received their drinks and food well before us and then we were rushed out. The bed also was two twin size beds pushed together to create a king size. This was not desirable or described in the room description. Location however, very convenient. Just wished the room and service was better.
