Heather

United KingdomThe staff went above and beyond to iron out some issues that we had with our room, we really enjoy staying at this hotel, the room sizes are really good and the view over the city and riverside are hard to beat. Excellent that there is an ice machine on each floor for your convenience and ice bucket in the room, as well as use of the spa included in the room rate ! everything is covered for your stay for business or pleasure. Always recommend a stay at the Raddison Blu.
