Decent hotel, thought it needed some modernisation considering it’s a 4 star hotel. The front desk was nearly empty most of the time, so need to go and search for people when I needed help.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our room was 23. Very noisy. We paid quite a bit for the room but felt it wasn’t worth it. The furniture was dated. No hair dryer in room. The room was in the old part of the hotel. The wedding venue part was beautiful, as was the lobby. There were negatives but overall I would stay here again. Just in a different part of the building

It's a shame that at breakfast when I had eggs benedict which should have muffins they did not have them, and gave me normal buns or burger buns.
