The deluxe room was very appealing with a harbour view and an exceptionally comfortable bed. The coffee machine (pod) meant that we allowed us to enjoy excellent coffee and the welcome drink was a wonderful touch. It was in a great location and very close to the train station that will open later this year.

We were very impressed with the standard of this hotel. Our room on the 9th floor was reasonably spacious with a lovely view of the harbour. Food and beverage selection at the bar and restaurant was good and well priced. Breakfast also excellent with good selection and variety. All staff we encountered were friendly and efficient. Would happily return.
