The Shore area and its bars and restaurants are in easy walking distance and the tram stop is just across the road. Staff are friendly and helpful and the bar is a pleasant place to round off an evening.

I wasn't sure what to expect but this Holiday Inn is one of the best run hotels i have stayed in. I mean everything just gels here. The staff are quite honestly astoundingly good. From walking in the door they were warm and friendly and just so welcoming. The room was spotless, including tea/coffee making things. And the breakfast is wonderful. 10/10 to all of you we will be back for sure.

A great hotel for our family of 4. Breakfast included in the price, which was a great bonus! The staff were friendly, helpful and kind. Easy check in and check out, plenty of parking. Great location. On princess street within 20 minutes, using the tram. Room is small but ideal for an overnight or weekend city break. Would go back again.
