The breakfast offerings were extensive and fresh; the staff attentive, and the doorman was a regular Harry Bailey if you know your Chaucer.

The Queensberry Hotel
Absolutely beautiful room with view. Everything was lovely at the hotel only issue being coffee machine downstairs was broken and not working properly each day. A small Nespresso would have worked better in the meantime.
