This was a really lovely little resort.. the pool area and roof top bar was really gorgeous. It was easy to get around town and find delicious places to eat. but unfortunately the room was so so so small.. uncomfortabley tiny and neither my husband or I are big people.. There was no where to place our suitcase, the cupboard had hanging space no drawers or shelves so we had to live out of the suitcase but had to zip it and stand it after taking our clothes out as there was no room. The shower was huge but the vanity was so tiny there wasn't room to barely hold the toothbrush. The mad cow nightclub is right next door and was still pumping at 2 in the morning.. the noise was something we weren't aware of. I knew it was near a nightclub but figured they would have sound-proofed better than that. The rooms let in so much light. The curtain is not block out and the door frame allowed a lot of light into the room. Its such a shame as this was a really nice and super convenient spot. We will stay again but will be asking for a bigger room next time and will bring ear plugs.

Excellent hotel. Convenient location for the Strand, ferry wharf and shopping. Room was clean and comfortable. Sink vanity area in bedroom but loo and shower were separate which was a very convenient set up. Nice pool area and both restaurants served really good food.

Very loud, we were given a room away from the pool area as that would be the quietest. Not so much. It was a Saturday night, we were next to the alleyway andbwere woken up from fights on the street and nearby pubs emptying all their bottles into skip bins at 4am. There were also lots of bugs in our room when we returned home that evening. Possibly from opening the door which is lit up - watch for this, time your entry!
