The rooms were unique, loved the size of the room. Lift and internal areas could do with an upgrade but thats pretty minor. Loved the room and the location.

Lovely to be a short walk from BATS Theatre, a supermarket, the waterfront. Delicious snacks in the Pantry. Friendly team. Super quiet at night (Studio room.)

So disappointed as we were really looking forward to this. We often stay at Copthorne and thought we'd splash out and stay at Ohtel. We won't be back! Our tiny room was claustrophobic. There was no window, no view, no bathroom door! and the carpet has large stains. The shower curtain blows around and water gets all over the floor. There's a wooden surround around the bed that makes getting in and out very awkward and I kept walking into it as the room is so small with no natural light. We were right next to the lift and reception so we heard everyone coming and going. If you do decide to stay here, make sure it's not the dungeon room that we got. The wotif photos are very deceptive.

Loved staying at Ohtel! The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly - and considering I was staying during COVID-19 level 3 that was especially important. I had my dog with me and they were incredibly accommodating - can’t believe a hotel as nice as this allows dogs. Room was immaculate, cool layout. Bed was very comfy, shower was spacious and high pressure. Loved the extra touch of a free drink on arrival. Beautiful location on the waterfront and across from a park - perfect for walking the dog. Overall was very impressed and will be back!
