10/10 City Centre Stay

Lovely room and hotel which was perfect for our stay for a local wedding over the weekend. The breakfast was 10/10 and the lounge area for use by all guests with honesty bar is a lovely touch. We did have a bit of noise outside the room at night to be expected, as it is centrally located but earplugs and eye mask are provided! Would definitely stay again!
