Food was really good. Comfy bed and pillows nice treat of cookies delivered to room. Was woken by fire alarm at 4:45am and neither of landlords really knew what to do and didn’t communicate what was happening leaving residents out in the cold. Other than that a good stay.

Beautiful building very clean and cosy. Check in was stress free and the guys who checked us in were friendly and efficient. The only down side was that service was a little slow in the evening in the restaurant. We had to ask for dessert menu and bill.

Ideal location if intending to use the airport. Excellent quality and choice of food if dining in, supported by a self serve buffet continental breakfast for early leavers. There is also plenty of room in the car park.

Beautiful bar & restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. The room was clean and comfortable. We were only staying to catch a flight the next morning which worked perfectly for us, despite an early checkout we were able to take some breakfast to eat in the airport. Strongly recommended, we’ll definitely go back.
