We enjoyed our stay at The Argus. Location was within reasonable walking distance (about 15-20 minutes) of the city centre and some great eateries. Continental breakfast provisions were great. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

On my first night, there was a fire evacuation emergency. It was about 11.30 pm. I started to prepare to evacuate as the alarm continued. I thought about staying out on the balcony as I was on the sixth floor. Decided to head down the fire escape after seeing so many people outside anxiously waiting news from the fire brigade who had just arrived. No fire. All clear given to return to hotel.
