Great stay, very comfy room with a lovely view of the castle and park. Fast check in and very friendly staff. Blanka on reception was very helpful. Only minor downside were the drawers in the room were broken. Kettle, hairdryer and iron with ironing board in the room.

The beds were small, there was no real disability access in the bathrooms! There was blood on the bathroom floor. The staff were very friendly, the parking lot was difficult for a person with a disability.

Tired and very dated, never again

On checking in we were given a room on the 4th floor, we went to the room which can only be described as stuck in the 80’s the most awful room I’ve seen. On complaint we were given floor 6. Marginally better! Let’s just say never again!

Air-conditioning set to winter even if it is warm outside. Not possible to adjust since it is pre set. Only option is to switch it off and open the window and hope it does not rain and the seagull stay quiet.

Clean and comfortable, great location in the City Centre. Staff were all polite and helpful, only negative is that the hotel is a little dated in areas.

Very well treated on arrival - one of us was recovering from surgery and not feeling great - we were treated with kindness and given a better room. The downside was the restaurant - slow service for dinner early in the evening and very poor quality hot food on the buffet at breakfast. Having said that we'll probably stay there again as the hotel is handy for city centre venues and usually has parking available.
