Room was excellent but whatever have you done to the dining area?!!! It used to be nice comfy chairs and (for breakfast) a relaxing and quiet atmosphere that made breakfast something to look forward to. Instead there is now ‘basic’ seating and a very echoey atmosphere that must be due in no small part to the now lack of upholstery and possibly carpet area. In short the echoey sounds made it not much better than a company cafeteria. Quite disappointing and if the hotel wasn’t so convenient and nice in other ways it might well be a case of looking elsewhere for a better breakfast dining experience.

Would have liked a cooked breakfast at 06:30, but had to settle for a continental as hot meal service does not start until 07:00, which was too late for me as I needed to leave for my appointment at 07:10. 4 pillows supplied all as hard as bricks, very uncomfortable, not a good nights sleep. Rest of the hotel was fine from what I saw.
