Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at this hotel in a fairly suburban area, and it was perfect for a quick stopover. The room was comfortable and had all the facilities I needed, but the view of the kitchen extractors was a bit disappointing. The service was attentive, especially when they moved me to a better spot to see the action. The dining experience included huge portions and high-quality ingredients, though a touch of fruit would've been a nice addition. The location was convenient, and the hotel's facilities were top-notch.
The hotel had spacious rooms with a huge bathroom and a well-cooked breakfast, and all facilities were available on the upper floors. The service was attentive, ensuring customers were promptly assisted. The location, situated in a fairly suburban area with beautiful gardens, provided a peaceful ambiance. The dining experience offered huge portions of good quality food but lacked some fruit options. The facilities were modern and convenient.
