What I liked most was the consistently friendly and accommodating staff. This was my third stay at NU Hotel, and on each occasion the team has been very helpful with individual requests, which I really appreciated. I also love the character of the hotel. My room had a beautiful, colourful mural, which made it feel much more unique and personal than a typical hotel room. The room was clean and comfortable, and the gym is another great feature, especially for a longer stay. Overall, NU Hotel has a warm, individual character, and the staff's willingness to accommodate guests' needs is what keeps me coming back.

They have free coffee and water and breakfast. The gym is good enough The front desk staff person could not have been less welcoming. No smile, no warmth, no greeting when we arrived. Not a great way to begin our stay at this hotel. The room is dated. The mattress is old and saggy. The pillows are old and the foam has fallen apart.

A clean minimalist hotel with a great location for me. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was very tight. The shower was great. The bed was comfortable. The coffee pot worked well. No refrigerator which made it a little inconvenient. The “breakfast” wasn’t really used.
