Could be better

The hotel is being re-vamped, which is fine, however the toilet seat in my ensuite wasn't fitted properly, the shower didn't work, the room was very noisy.

Comfortable rooms

We booked two rooms for one night. Both rooms had large beds, good facilities and were clean. Breakfast was lovely with the usual full English and continental available. The only problem was as it was a Saturday night one of the rooms had a problem with noise from the street of revellers. Very friendly staff and the refurbishment is not a problem.

Great location

We stayed here as we were attending a concert at the arena. The hotel was in the perfect location for the train station which was just around the corner. It was a bit of a walk to the arena but we wanted to get food on the way so it gave us the opportunity to find somewhere. At check in the staff were super polite and ensured we had all the information we needed. The room was clean and tidy and the facilities in the room were great with an iron and hairdryer to hand if needed. We booked the breakfast in the morning which was beautifully cooked and very filling. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. We'd definitely stay here again.

Accessible considerations

There's little bits that could be improved. I'm a wheelchair user and had to use a side entrance which I needed to ring a bell to get the door opened (I waited here for 5mins - glad t wasn't raining!) some extra consideration could have been given here. I also found via a letter in the room the water will be turned off in the morning! This could have been mentioned on check in as could affect individuals morning routines. I travelled alone and couldn't get to the window to shut the curtain as a wheelchair user. The shower head was at the top and couldn't be reached as a wheelchair user. So nothing major buta few little things that made my stay less enjoyable.
