Really quiet location considering so close to airport. Bed was super comfy and room was very modern and spacious. Would definitely stay again. Only things I would change is would be nice if the blinds could be adjusted so you could see the river in your room and a smart TV would be handy.

Interesting buildings, more like a resort hotel than an inner city stay which was nice. All staff were kind, engaging and helpful. I only wish there was a microwave in my room to heat things up. The restaurant experience was decent too. Otherwise, wonderful and will definitely stay again.
