Stay here many times, love it everytime. Great spacious rooms, great location, always great service, I will always stay here. Oh and some amazing views from the top floor rooms.

The gym is in need of a re-vamp. Our bathroom had a giant hairball stuck to the doorstop when we arrived. The beds had a dip in the centre. It’s in a fabulous location but having stayed in several others at a similar price point, I’d pick the others.
