Lovely to stay here overnight. All the basic necessities. No weird noises, no creepy taps dripping and no doors opening and shutting on their own. Thanks

Joey at the St.Georges was a saviour! Without him, I wasn't able to check in solely with the computer console. Staff is required to welcome guests at a hotel.

Individual thermostat was off and all the Windows were open. Absolutely freezing. Normally would have rang to get it sorted but was so tired I went straight to bed. Will be booking in for my weekly stay next week so hope it is remedied
