The Pink concert we went to and our trip down canal street. Also had fun taking pictures with the Budda, Brass Dog and the Zebra. I really wanted to swing from the big chandelier though, it was very tempting but disappointed that I was unable to. The door man when we got in was pretty rude and unfriendly. The queue to check in was massive. 5,700 bedrooms and only two check in staff... sort it out mate! |

Central location was ideal for coach station train station, shopping and night life. The staff informed me that due to the hotel not being fully booked they had upgraded me to a twin. Now that's what I call service. Black out curtains and sound proof windows would have made the stay perfect. |

Basically only the location. Noise from the downstairs pub at late night during weekend's just unbearable. It's hard to get a good night's sleep. The hotel's old and there's a smell that comes with it. My room wasn't exactly spotless, and the wifi's very very slow. |

the hotel was very central and was perfect for our trip close to the station and to teh main centre. The Lifts were slow and small for a such a large hotel, You could wait up 10-15min for one to call at your floor,and the excutive room was not what i would call excutive! more basic. |

idealy placed for both shoping and canal st, the ncp is just around the corner, the bars within the hotel are nice and you can get a pizza or a sandwich and chips, for a snack and take up to your room, befor you go out. |

Handy location. When asked if we wanted a smoking or non smoking room I said I didn't mind not thinking anything of it. The receptionist gave us a smoking room, and on arrival it stunk of stale smoke, the curtains, carpets & in fact everything in the room smelt. As a non smoker this was more than a bit disgusting, The room was yellow & grubby. I would have asked to be moved but the queue at reception was so long that I didn't have time to wait or I'd have missed the Pink concert I was there to see. I don't think it was worth the money I paid for it. |

Can't complain about location - perfect for shopping / Also staff were very helpful sorting out the problems we had We booked a superior suite. When we arrived we were very disappointed to be given a smoking room - it was classed as superior I'd hate to see the other rooms. It was fine as we literally planned to use the rom to shower and sleep but we were expecting more - we've stayed in much nicer hotels and paid less. |

The location of this hotel is very good, close to shopping center. A lot of pubs and restourants are nearest this hotel. Also it is not far away from train station.Breakfast was very nice! My room ( single) was in the aditional floor ( like a mansard) , and there was no the lift to this floor, i had to tow my very heavy luggage using stairs. The room was not warm, becouse of wind. Be careful , choosing single room. |

This hotel looks fab, the decor is old and bold. It has a slight 'Overlook' feel about it, that's the name of the hotel from 'The Shining'. If you like day light make sure you get a room with a window as there are internal rooms also. This hotel is above a night club and is on a very busy road, so if your planning on going to bed early make sure you get a room on the upper levels, 3 or above. Ity quietens down after 2am. Bed was comfy and room and bathroom practical. Lots of tea and coffee and hot choc to be had. the tv needed updating. very old and crackly. |

The proximty of the hotel to the city centre. Also, the helpful and friendly staff. We would have no hesitation in staying there again Check in, it took longer that i would have expected. However, this is no reflection on the reception staff, who were excellent. I think extra staff would be appropriate for busy days |
