It's a lovely place to stay. Comfortable rooms. Kind and welcoming staff. The location is very central to public transportation, close to downtown, and a few minutes from the Said Business School.
The room was lovely apart from the lighting which was terrible! Couldn’t read in bed as the light wasn’t close enough but too dim anyway. The rest of the room was too dark, I had to use the torch on my phone to see to read the coffee machine’s instructions. Bathroom light, however, was great, I should have read in there. It would have been nice just to have black coffee pods, only crème ones available but it was a nice touch to have water and milk in the fridge on the landing

Our stay was lovely. Staff really friendly and close to the centre.
Would definitely stay again.
I really enjoyed my one night stay here. The staff was extremely helpful and took great care of me.
Nice room, good breakfast, and VERY close to the train station. If you are arriving from London you can exit on the platform you arrive on and save a few minutes walk.
Lots of construction at the station itself but this did not cause any noise problems while I was there.
Very nice stay!
Really lovely room above restaurant/bar but no disruptive noise as closed by 10pm. Breakfast not till 8 but were prepared to leave a snack if need to get out early.
The Porterhouse is in walking distance to the train station, but on the other side of the tracks getting it away from the main tourist area. The Hop On/Hop Off buss is at the train station. It was absolutely silent at night. We were able to use that or just walk to any place we wanted to see. We slept with the windows open during out visit and at night time there wasn't a peep to be heard. We ate at the restaurant for breakfast, and once for dinner and the food preparations were exceptionally good, especially the aged steak. The staff were very accommodating, assisting with getting our luggage up the stairs to our room. This is an old classic building that has been well updated and within those constraints I would rate the hotel as exceptional and worth a revisit the next time I find myself in the area.
