We also enjoyed a free upgrade and had a huge suite with a wrap around balcony. The breakfast was so delicious and such a wide variety of food available, something for everyone!

The staff were delightful, helpful and friendly; the buffet breakfast is great value with a very good selection of sweet and savoury treats. There is an element of mystic when it comes to the roof bar which doesn’t make it very spontaneous to visit or welcoming, which I think is does the amenities a disservice.
