Staff were all warm and welcoming, and the room was nice. The aircon in the room worked very well as did the shower in the bathroom, but the only downsides were the uncomfortable pillows and the lack of soundproofing in the rooms.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I booked a night at the hotel as was attending a wedding and convenient to stay. The venue part for the wedding was stunning and was not an issue. The hotel itself is outdated - my single room had no storage for clothes and none of the power point sockets were charging up my appliances. My sister and cousins room had no locks on the doors. The beds were comfortable however. The complimentary breakfast was complimentary for a reason - it was terrible Sausages looked like out of a can and not what we expected, neither was the food warmed up. Then we saw one of the staff light the fire underneath it but the kids had already had toast by then. The waiter said the other waiter was supposed to have done it to warm up the food but that he’s ‘lazy’ Won’t be recommending or returning to this hotel who even had the audacity to ask us to write them a good review !

Saw the hotel was in an industrial estate and my heart sank. However, everything changed once we'd entered it. Very polite staff, excellent service, very clean rooms and beautiful breakfast room.

Nice hotel with good decor. In-house caterer can provide indian room-service meals which are tasty. Convenient location if driving, or a 10-20 minute walk from restaurants and shops. Parking can be very tricky during events.
