There was quite a lengthy queue to check- in which was a little uncomfortable but the room/bathroom were a good size. We enjoyed breakfast although the sausages could be of better quality. We were particularly interested in the Churchill Room which sadly appeared to be being used for a function. Our short tour of the Turkish Baths were incredible and sleep quality (quiet room) helped provide a really good relaxing trip overall . Thank you.

Really tired looking inside the hotel. The room was particularly dated, wallpaper peeling, drab furniture, old fashioned and the most awful view of a car wash. Corridors were rather dirty. One male nember of the reception staff was very obnoxious and downright rude. Younger male, dark hair. Fortunately, another male took over from him and was much more pleasant and helpful. The breakfast was very nice, and a good location near the North Shore. All in all, a very mediocre hotel. Will not return.

Arrived at the hotel to find a massive queue for check in which took around 45 minutes to get to the front. These seemed to a combo of sheer volume (due to a conference in the hotel) and staff battling a booking system which seemed to involve multiple bits of paper and general confusion. The hotel itself is tired but perfectly nice and breakfast is very good. The downside was our room which had shockingly bad pillows. Also suffered from noise as we could hear anyone walking in the corridor outside and above the room.
