Not such a good stay
Sadly we had to do our stay in 2 bookings as hotel was busy and our 1st room had a bad smell which I believe was from drainage , we had a view of the street with loud roadworks going on that was extremely noisy which was not told at time of booking šŸ˜„

We planned a nice romantic meal at the Sky restaurant for our anniversary but there were 11 raucous men in the Jacuzzi at 8pm (bachelor party even though we lead to believe the jacuzzi would be closed at 7pm) this made our dinner arrangements impossible and we chose to leave. The staff were very understanding and apologetic. The hotel staff and amenities were wonderful and we shall definitely come again.
