Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Comfort rating trails other categories — While rooms are rated highly, the overall comfort score is the lowest category at 7.3, suggesting some may find beds or noise levels slightly less than perfect.
- Café service can be inconsistent — One guest found the café staff less helpful than the reception team, a minor inconsistency in an otherwise service-focused stay.
- Price point is on the higher side — With rates from £401, some may question the value, though the location and service are often cited as justifying the cost.
