It is an absolutely wonderful hotel to stay near a lot of shopping and restaurants . Staff is excellent and very friendly. They go out of the way to help you. Property is clean. We were two adults and two children and it suited us very very well. There are a lot of options close by for shopping and restaurants. The overall vibe is great. The tram is close by very easy to get to the touristic places. Overall, we loved this place.

We enjoyed our stay at The Story. The hotel really does have a great website. The arranged pick-up from the airport went well and the room we had was in good shape, if a little dated and weary. Everything worked and the advice from staff was friendly and helpful.
