Liked: Staff & service
The hotel was very modern, our bedroom well furnished - though another chair would have been useful. Very comfy bed! Loved the way a small bedlight (like a torch) could be detached. The staff on our arrival were very warm and welcoming and just as smiley and efficient on our departure. We would definitely stay here again.

We thought the location was perfect and could not fault anything except the guest next door thought he could acess our room through the in between door to our bedroom, he rattled our door senseless then he kept banking on our door. Until I replied strongly and then all went quite!!! I think you should put a large sign on both sides of that door saying NO ENTRYWHATSOEVER.

A night at the theatre …
So close to the theatre which made our night our easy to navigate. Very comfortable room and beds with a high level of cleanliness. I would certainly book here again. The addition of breakfast was fabulous, however, I think there needs to be some amendments to the dining experience as it was chaotic trying to get to the buffet; it took a bit of the shine off the fact we were getting breakfast included .

Disappointing
Despite messaging ihg prior to my stay informing them that I was bringing my little dog, the receptionist was unaware of this. We had to then wait to be re-checked in to another ‘dog friendly’ room. We were advised we wouldn’t be allocated a breakfast time slot because of the little dog, but a tray could be brought to us in reception! This is not acceptable after paying an inflated supplement of £25!! The tv remote control in the room did not work. I waited 20 minutes at reception to change it whilst the only receptionist checked in a party of 14!!! Noise from underground trains was intrusive and made for disrupted sleep. ‘View’ of concrete wall from bedroom window -no natural daylight in room. ‘Expresso’ coffee in breakfast coffee machine is just stronger instant coffee -horrible. All in all a disappointing stay and not worth the price.

Cool town
The service is very friendly, the cleaning was nice, but the room was very very small for three people, we couldn't walk between the beds, that was the only thing we could improve. On the other hand it is very near the city center, so it was very easy to walk around.

We were a little disappointed with the size of room when we arrived, but the lovely reception staff were quick to offer a solution and extremely nice and friendly. On our last day we had nothing to do, but during a chat with the receptionist, she suggested some things. We took her advice and it was just brilliant. Myself, my wife and both my daughters loved staying there.

When we cheecked in, the room 255, the kettle and TV were not working. The girl on reception then informed us that it was a maintenance issue. Offered us a room move and a refund. We were moved to room 264 which had single beds and no outlook. In thr morning we were advised that we had to contact hotels.com ourselves for a refund. I will be doing this. Hotel ok but cert tired.
