Lovely hotel. The room was gorgeous and the staff were amazing. A couple of issues came up, firstly was the lack of power plugs anywhere near the bed. I'm a smartphone addict and was frustrated that I couldn't charge my phone and use it in bed.

I also had some issues with street noise - despite being in the top floor and facing a quiet street. I assume (though didn't check) that the windows were single glazed, which meant I woke up at 3am to the chants of those being thrown out of bars. I quickly got back to sleep, but this seems avoidable with better glazing. Similarly you will constantly hear the tooting of trams, but to be honest I found this pleasant.

I wouldn't particularly recommend the breakfast. The sausages and bacon were subpar, but the variety of food was great and the service fantastic.

All in all, pretty good, with some annoying drawbacks that don't allow me to give it full marks - however I would return in future.

(Plus, the spa was great, but you have to book slots at busy times)
