5 nights of comfort
Just returned from this hotel and i was happy with my stay. Stayed in a room with 2 queen beds. The room was clean and spacious. The decor is slightly dated, with an old TV. However, room had good basic facilities required for a tourist stay. Room included a big desk, coffee machine, iron and board, large wardrobe and comfortable sprung mattress beds. The bathroom was small and the wash basin was outside the main bathroom, but this caused no problem.
The hotel is centrally located and close to all the nightlife, business district and tourist attractions. All within easy walking distance.
During one evening, a heavy winter storm hit. However, we used the pub, "Elephant and Castle" downstairs on the ground floor which had good pub food and drink offers.
Staff were always courteous and efficient. There is also a small coffee shop downstairs if you fancy a pastry and coffee anytime.
There are 4 elevators which are quick and readily available.
The hotel recently been bought by the sonesta chain and is slowly being modernized. However, for £80 a night, i was happy with this hotel and would stay there again.
