Excellent location, beautiful hotel, great staff, small rooms despite upgrade, very expensive bar. No bath in our room, only a shower which, considering it`s five star status, was grubby and needed some attention to the grouting. Not all our lights worked but neither of these things ruined our stay. At a travel lodge it would be almost expected but I only mention them because it`s a 5* establishment and I feel it falls short of that. Would stay again at a discounted rate but wouldn`t pay full price.

"1st class all the way.... But with a relaxed twist "

Only the one night but will stay here many more in future, great arrival reception drinks, welcoming smile and truly helpful and courteous staff. This guest attention flowed through the hotel, from the reception to housekeeping to the bar and restaurant. We couldn`t believe how chilled out the 1212 restaurant and it`s staff were, never mind the background music.... All an experience to savour and do again!

"Excellent location and ambiance"

Very convenient location, lovely room, delightful staff and responded to my request for a high floor room. But there was just one electric socket and the kettle doesn`t quite reach so needed some propping, and there was no iron in the room (which the hotel guide says there is). Minor issues, but for a 5* irritating. Breakfast is expensive and only a huge appetite could justify the high price tag.

" xxxxx Hotel"

Overall the hotel itself is lovely. Our room was incrediably small and clostraphobic. It was far too hot and could not alter the settings. Could not have the windows open as it was too noisy. The bathroom was so small my partner could not get into the shower (door opened onto the toilet!) without standing on the toilet to get in. The hotel needs to sort out the room sizes. The bed was small (double) and very hard - needless to say did not get hardly any sleep.
