The Tower Hotel, by Thistle

The Tower Hotel, by Thistle

10/10 Excellent
"Amazing view, great location to get around the city, comfortable with what you need in the room including towels, shower gel, coffee and tea. Tired furnishings but signs up saying they were changing that so maybe not all rooms. Barely any contact with any staff. Bags can be left on day of and after stay. Very handy. Breakfast was good and as someone who is gluten and dairy free I had a lot of options- cooked including sausages, yogurt, milks, muffin and toasted roll."
