I reported a problem which was quickly attended to. Breakfast was good, like all of these places avoid the pastries, the fresh fruit, eggs any way you like and other accompaniments are good & they try to cater for all (pork dishes are seperate). The evening menu is a bit ordinary but there are plenty of other places nearby to dine. For sightseeing the hop on hop off bus has a shuttle stop in front of the hotel. There is a nearby train station which is walkable, it goes to the airport and is clean and safe. The airport transfer service offered by the hotel if you have more luggage is clean, comfortable & the drivers professional. ##### Tracey Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Victor 13 Jan 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities It’s close to everything ##### Victor Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Frederick 21 Apr 2025 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Great room and breakfast.
