Quiet atmosphere of Suberb outside the busy city with a convenient easy to use tram and on the route of the hop on hop off tour bus. Great place to stay for a couple of days exploring the city. Breakfast had a good selection of hot and cold and was typical of continental breakfasts offered by large chain establishments.

Surrounding area easily accessible, links into city centre easy and value for money. Room was clean and staff were available and helpful at all times. In my opinion the breakfast was not value for cost of room. Dining room staff were helpful at all times but food was not best quality, fuit juice, eggs, lack of fresh coffee, purely instant from a machine.

Enjoyed staying here. Great staff and the breakfast was very nice. Room was on the small size but to be expected in the UK and high price because of peak season. Didn’t spend my days in the room and the bed was good so I was happy.
