The location across from the train station and in the city center cannot be beat. Our room was remarkably spacious and very comfortable. It would be easy to get lost in this hotel's many corridors, but that wouldn't be a bad adventure since the hotel oozes charm and history; it even has a ghost story! The bar and restaurant can get loud, but the food and drinks are excellent, and the vibes are fun. Best of all: the staff were unfailingly friendly and very helpful.

Architecture and interior design stunning. Staff lovely, beds comfortable. The bar is lively on a Saturday night but lots of drinks options and great atmosphere. Only slight disappointment is that we didn't see the famous ghosts, but perhaps that's a good thing.

Fabulous place to stay. It’s about our 6 th time. The building is fabulous. An old Victorian building … high ceilings, impressive decor of tiles and marble, great bar with lively atmosphere. The breakfast is fab in great surroundings. Staff are so helpful and friendly. Bedrooms , even standard , are great and couldn’t be cleaner. Mad for it !
