Excellent Stay Near Piccadilly

The staff was notably polite and helpful. The hotel has a secure entry system, which does provide reassurance. I found the hotel and my room quite clean. The location is convenient, near transportation and shops, a considerable benefit.
I noticed the tea tray was an extra charge. It seemed a bit much, considering the room rate.

Convenient Location, Basic Comfort

convenient locationhelpful staffacceptably clean roomsufficient comfort
The hotel's location next to the tram stop aided my travel to the concert. The friendly staff offered assistance at check-in and throughout my visit. My room was acceptably clean, and the bed offered sufficient comfort for a night's rest. The absence of tea and coffee facilities was balanced by the option to purchase a tray from reception.
I noticed the absence of a cooked breakfast. I would have liked to pay extra for it.

Breakfast had basic continental options. The hotel cooked some food on request, an alternative to dining out. There was to be limited seating for the number of guests using the breakfast service.

Basic Stay with Some Issues

optional cleaningsmall bathroom
The room cleaning seemed optional. They changed towels sometimes, but they didn't make the bed. We had three people, yet some days we only got two bath towels. the bathroom was quite small.

Convenient Arena Stay

useful locationshort trambasic foodbreakfast option
The location was great for the arena. It took a short tram ride. I walked back one night. This way was much faster. The hotel also offers basic food cooked on request. I will stay again because it is so easy to get to the arena.
The breakfast was not good. There were no cooked options available. The quality was poor with little choice, I didn't eat much. I won't eat breakfast again.
