Hotel Verve Hotel

A restaurant or other place to eat at Verve Hotel

The lobby or reception area at Verve Hotel

Everything else, especially the staff. The bar and restaurant area was really lovely. I had no trouble with parking either, that is very important for me.

I did not partake of breakfast, I am told by those that did it was excellent. The staff were attentive and friendly very helpful when I needed to book a further room quite late in the day. Every one in the party remarked what good value it was on our way home.

Tracy

The room was tiny and overpriced. I rang the hotel afterwards to discuss the fact that I had heard the restaurant manager telling other customers the normal room price was half what I paid. No-one answered the phone. I couldn't find an email address on their website. I left a message asking the hotel to ring me back and let me have the email address. they never rang back

The bathroom stank like dampness and the smell made us feel sick. The room was very hot and humid and the lighting in the room was terrible! When we went down for breakfast, we were rudely told it finished, even though we were told it ran till 9.30 and we went at 9.01am.
The room was spacious.

Parking is interesting. If you want to go early make sure you select a spot that cannot be blocked in. The Hotel does cover this in their guidelines, however, they ask you to leave keys at reception so blocking vehicles can be moved.
I just wanted a room for the night. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
