When I complained about the noise from air conditioning ducts outside the window I was transferred immediately to another room where the noise was not so loud. Comfortable bed. Friendly staff.

Whole building had a generally run down appearance and a stale smell. The mouse (Michael the mouse) running across the floor in the breakfast room was cute, but perhaps not the best for hygiene. Hotel rather expensive.

Overall: Convenient location, which was important. Enjoyable stay in general.  (108259262)

We were upgraded to a suite. We had to return to the hotel for a further night and were given a room at the same reduced price.The staff were very efficient and friendly.

The maintenance was was a bit lacking, but probably because other guests had failed to report things.

Overall: Excellent. A definite improvement over the last time we stayed in this hotel about 2 years ago.  (108302483)

Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Hotel clean and appealing. Breakfast was most enjoyable.

There were no toiletries in the room, although it was stated that there should have been on the itinary. The noise from the vents was very annoying. Also if the gate hadn't been pulled across on the old-fashioned lift you had no choice but to use the stairs.

Overall: Nice relaxing break.  (107461529)

There was a particularly nice server in the bar who was kind, generous of her time and informative. I can't remember her name but she was Polish.

I needed some assistance in using the TV and air con in the room. I eventually got the necessary help but it was not quick and I had to eventually go to the reception to get what I needed.One concierge treated me condescendingly- but only the one. I was charged for a full breakfast even though I only had coffee, toast and a scrambled egg.

Overall: Location was nice. Hotel nicely decorated. At least the windows opened.  (107663877)

Close to city centre and entertainment. Friendly staff, Knowledgeable barman! Clean, comfortable room. Reasonably priced including breakfast. Well trained staff and well practiced emergency routines (we had two fire drills during our short stay)

Upgrade the elevator! Although the old style elevator (with the manual internal gate) is in keeping with the age and style of the building it is not convenient when you find that another (less knowledgeable) guest has left the internal gate open at the top floor and you are on the bottom floor! The "booth" style bench seats in the Michael Caines Restaurant do not give you much room for maneouvre - especially if you are no longer the sylph like creature you used to be!
