Stay somewhere else until the remodeling is finish

Hotel is under construction. No access to lobby except through parking garage. Breakfast dining facilities were relocated to a conference room. Rooms do not have AC (disabled) and the rooms get hot. They provide a fan, but the window to the outside opens only a crack due to safety cord. Terrible nights sleep with stuffy heat in the room and road noise and loud drunks in the late evening. Food service was questionable. Rooms were not consistently stocked. 3 couples had varied amenities or lack there of on the same floor. If the hotel is going to be in a remodeling a discount should be offered for those staying in the old rooms and putting up with the many inconveniences. Definitely not as represented in the offering.

Fantastic location very close to city walls and beside the river. Hotel was undergoing renovation in June 2025 as it is becoming a Hilton property. This was my second stay in 7 years and I hope the friendliness and reasonable pricing does not change. Parking is under the hotel in a very well hidden and small area. If you get a spot you will not want to move until check out. Parking an SUV would be quite a challenge. I hope to come back to this hotel one day.

This property is undergoing an extensive renovation however, there is no excuse for dirty cutlery and no attempt to replace when pointed out. Also coffee brought no milk no condiments on the table. Waitress just seem disinterested. I know it’s going through a refurb but they could try and show a bit of warmth to guests. Also bar service quite slow and no urgency to serve waiting guests. Should be transparent on £14 parking fee when making booking.
