It's an older property but it checks out. Had some issues with the toilet and in order for the power to stay on in the room you have to leave key card inserted in slot near door, but otherwise a generally pleasant stay. Great restaurant/bar, good food, great staff.

Fair/Good overall, room needs a little work.

Very nice hotel lobby and bar area, decorated beautifully for Christmas. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The route to my room on the 1st floor (rm 111) was difficult because of all the stairs (I'd recommend replacing them with ramps). Also, in an effort to be green, the lights in the newer wing would be off and come on as you passed under them, giving the hall a very creepy, uninviting vibe. The room was clean except for the hairdryer which was weirdly sticky. The linens need to be updated. My duvet had a hole in the lining and the mattress protector kept slipping off every night because the elastic was shot. The bed was comfortable enough, but it could probably use a new mattress. My only real criticism is the bathroom, which needs to be updated. Please put glass in the shower/tub because there's nothing worse than having a shower curtain touching you while showering.

The staff were friendly but away from the desk a lot of the time. The room was extremely cold at night and we couldn’t turn up the heating as it was controlled by staff (who we couldn’t find). No under floor heating despite it being stated. Comfy bed and clean room though with easy parking outside.

Hotel needs upgrading

Hotel was very tired. Friendly staff on reception. Best bit of the room was the shower room which looked like it had been recently fitted. Good quality fixtures & fittings. Bedroom area however was tired & dated. Quite a bit of dust & cobwebs on upper parts of the walls.Floors very creaky. There was a wedding on which we weren’t warned about & it was noisy. The music was turned off at twelve but then lots of noise with guests moving about. It is an old building & the floors & stairs are very creaky. It could be a beautiful hotel but it is badly in need of an upgrade in the rooms & communal areas. However the location was good for access to city centre & the staff were very friendly.

Disappointing

Not a bad location for visiting Broad St/Brindley Place with tram stop a short walk away. Reception wasn’t manned when we arrived and it took some time to find someone to check us in. We found the same in the bar, had to wait for someone to appear to get a drink! Hotel is very tired, fixtures and fittings damaged and dated. Looked clean on the surface but shower curtains filthy and stained, thick dust on doors, bed head and shower gel container empty. Bath panel damaged and shower head thick with calcification, could definitely use some viakal! Windows draughty and hard to close. A wedding was taking place during our stay and although the music ended at midnight, there was continued noise until the guests had dispersed. Had we been aware of this event, we may have stayed elsewhere. On a positive, the bed was very comfy and bedding and towels of nice quality.
