The hotel is very clean, beautiful, and spacious. The receptionists were friendly and welcoming, and the staff made us feel at home. Breakfast was also very good. There is underground parking available, and if you stay at the hotel, you can validate at the reception for £10 per day, which I think is very reasonable.

We found this dog friendly hotel on our route from London to Copenhagen and it turned out to be wonderful. We had a beautiful room facing the stadium . It was clean discourse and modern. What’s even better is there is an Italian Resturant Lemoncello downstairs which fires a great steak and Basel cocktail plus it’s dog friendly. The breakfast was grand with a station doing fresh omelette
