Nice Hotel Easy Check In.

Hotel is not to far from The Railway Station. There are Two Entrances I found Hotel check in was easy. and Receptionist was Polite. Two Lifts which you did not have to swipe you Key Card in. Room was very nice Warm Nice Bathroom with Separate Toilet. Large TV. and could get the BBC red Button News and sport on. There was a sofa and two chairs. a plenty of workspace. And a place for your Suitcase. And a Brilliant large picture on the wall behind the Bed of Like a Swiss Train going over a bridge in the forest. Breakfast was good Lots of choices. The hot food was warm. The Fried eggs looks like they had cooked too many for that early in the morning. Two coffee Machines and Various Tea Bags. Two Toasters which took a while Thick White and Brown Bread and some to slice yourself, Frit Juices, Some slice Meat rolls about 4 different types, Muffins and Danish Pastry's. The standard Fresh Fruit which comes Bought in. The staff again very nice. I was here for a Gig at the Brudenell Social Club. so £6.10 in a taxi from the Brudenell gave Driver a tenner. So would stay again.

I was allocated an accessible room which I wasn't keen due to the walk in shower. I raised it and was changed to a superior room which I appreciated.

Good place to stay

Location was great for train station and city centre. Staff friendly and helpful, great selection for breakfast. Downside was location of our room which was 530, it was next to the lifts which were noisy throughout both nights and very early in the morning. Affected our sleep. Would stay here again but would be mindful of room location.

Quite difficult to find, because of its location and alterations around the station. But very scenic near the river. Everything very good, but I would prefer free range eggs at breakfast. There was vegan cheese, yoghurt, and maybe also milk, but not free range eggs, which are important for vegetarians.
