This is a convenient location with comfortable rooms and facilities. I did not eat there in the evening. I was surprised on arrival at 19.15h to be told that my room was not ready. After another staff member was consulted, the room was provided. I did not use the cited car park, but noticed that the traffic in surrounding streets was gridlocked for much of the day. This was particularly bad at 7-9pm on Friday night.

Lovely weekend stay

Room on the 5th floor with a canal view. Room was spotless and air conditioning was perfect as we had very warm weather this weekend. Staff were friendly and polite and we had a very warm welcome on arrival. Breakfast was lovely ….even better when we realised we could ask for fresh fried eggs. Small gym room but enough equipment to have an hour session. Security is fab as you can’t access the rooms unless you have a key card. Plenty of restaurants close by and a beautiful short walk along the canal to the Utilita arena.
