Stunning room & quiet considering the central location. Only criticism is that if 2 people check in then there should be 2 towels in the bathroom

Overnight stay

Hotel room was amazing, bed was most comfortable I've ever stayed in. Felt like I was cocooned in a luxury. Only negative would be no room service which I feel these days is unheard off for a hotel of this standard
