Stepping out of the lift onto the first floor and the whole area smelt of noodles/burnt food. This was there every time we came in and out of our room on both days and was most unpleasant. Would not stay again.

Easy check in and cool staff. Comfortable rooms but they are quite small. Very much one or two night commuter hotel rather than a super comfortable holiday stay. Excellent location obviously.

Overall, everything was great. The rooms, the hotel itself, the food, the location. My only complaint is the size of the latte. It’s insulting to charge five pounds for what must be around 150 milliliters. It’s mainly milk! You can do much better than that.

Only 1 key card worked from 2 even though we changed 3 times. The bath did drain well; shower handle fell off, the maid came to make the room up at 4.05, all hotel bars were closed at 11.07 pm on Sunday night and only room service was available. Tips on bills that included service appeared at check out.

Comfortable and well designed room with an incredible view. However, the bathroom had no door or hooks/rail to hang and dry towels. The bed only had sockets on one side... needs some adjustments to make it 5 stars.
