    I would have loved to see some sort of photos and a breife history about the Building and i didn't realize the restaurant was there and open until the last day so maybe letting people know about it on cheek in.

    The location was perfect only a very sort walk to tub station and museums with in walking distance , room was a good size and bed was very comfortable.

    The room was too hot and I struggled to turn down radiator, I had to open the window to let in some cool air. The toilet flush was very weak as was the WiFi signal.

    Conveniently close to museums, restaurants and shops. The room was quiet, clean and the bed was very comfortable.

    The staff were not at all helpful just after extra money. I'd booked a triple room for 4 people (suggests can sleep max 4 with 3 adults) and I requested a cot. I arrived to be told I was expected to pay more as one child was over 2. I was asked to prove the extra cost by rebooking online with the kids ages added (they were originally added but hadn't pulled through). This actually proved as I thought, that there was no extra cost so this was eventually waived. We left our bags in an open area, not a secured room as expected. Once we returned we were told we'd had our room upgraded, great, however it was not what I'd consider an upgrade. We were squeezed into a room with a double and two twin beds. We tried to make this work without a cot as I didn't want to make a fuss after the mornings annoyance. After an hour of trying to contain the youngest in an open bed it proved impossible and dangerous, so I called reception for a cot bed. I was told there was an extra charge despite adding it to my original booking as the room had been upgraded! I said I was grateful but hadn't asked to be upgraded but for a cot. We were all tired so I gave in an paid for the smallest travel cot I've seen, my son barely fit in it, there wouldn't have been room for a bigger one as the room was so small. This left no walkway to the exit which, in hindsight, was likely a fire hazard. We did all eventually get a good sleep. The rooms are dated but the location is great and we were only there one night.

    The location was great.

    Decor was slightly dated but still fine and the only downside was the lack of a lift having had a stroller for our youngest child.

    The room size was perfect for our family group, very spacious, good facilities for use with a microwave and fridge in both rooms

    The room was naturally hot in January with no obvious air conditioning, but only an old desk fan in the room. The beds are very, very tired (in need of changing) and difficult to sleep in. The hotel is in great need of refurbishing.
