The hotel offers beautiful, cozy rooms nicely decorated, spacious and quite roomy, with a clean and nice bathroom. The service was fantastic, the staff very friendly and on point, offering a delightful room service and welcome drink. The location is perfect, discreet, and up-to-date, situated above a lovely boutique pub. The dining experience in the pub was enjoyable with some nice snacks. Overall great value for money.

I was pleasantly surprised by the convenient and modern location of the hotel above a lovely boutique pub. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making my stay truly enjoyable. However, the room could have been a bit cleaner as it wasn't serviced over the weekend, and the towels were not up to standard by Monday.

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The rooms were big and comfy, despite some issues with housekeeping over the weekend. The service was friendly, although it felt a bit neglected at times. The location was fantastic, above a gorgeous boutique pub and close to many restaurants. The dining experience in the pub was good. Overall, a mixed experience with some ups and downs.
