Yorkshire − Voyage de noces

Sincèrement malgré le fait que l'hôtel soit excentré de Sheffield

L'hôtel est idéalement situé au coeur de Sheffield, à 10 minutes a pied de la gare et tout près aussi de l'université de Sheffield Hallam. La décoration est élégante et moderne. Le matelas était trop mou a notre goût mais c'est très personnel, d'autres apprécient ce genre de literie. Chambre calme et fonctionnelle, restaurant du petit déjeuner très agréable avec sa vue sur le jardin botanique, et en dehors de l'absence de chocolat en poudre, beaucoup de choix pour tous les goûts : full English breakfast, fruits, viennoiseries, fromages et charcuterie... Des marges de progrès : la jeune femme qui nous a enregistré ''eteot pas très aidante, lorsque nous lui avons demandé de nous aider à nous orienter elle nous a donné une carte sans explication ; l'acces a la piscine est payant de même que le prêt de parapluie, c'est assez mesquin. Au total, les points positifs l'emportent et nous étions très contents de notre choix.

If this isn’t the most expensive place in town, it must be pretty close. We were lucky, we feel, to get a room in the modern extension. It was a corner room and remarkable. The girl at the front desk tried to upgrade us for money and with her accent I couldn’t quite understand what the benefit to a different room would have been. It is hard for me to imagine a bedroom at this hotel. We used the spa and it is quite lovely and recently redone. However, a few of the features were not in operation, which was only slightly disappointing. I had a massage that was quite average, unfortunately. I’m glad I booked it with the hot stones. Otherwise I would’ve felt the benefit was not worth the money. I wasn’t expecting a sports massage, but this was too light to touch for my tastes. The restaurants and bars are all good to go. The hotel is on the “other” side of the river and I am of the belief this made for a quieter stay. You are a 10-15 minute walk from the center of the action. Nigel at the concierge was a top man.

Very nice and confortable hotel, and well located. The rooms and the place itself is in a classic british style. Breakfast is very nice and it is cooked on demand, which in my opinion may be a down-side, if you're not willing to spend 45 minutes for the breakfast (which esa my case most of the days as I was in a work stay).
