Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Price point — Given the four-star setting, the from-price of £456 may feel steep to some, and the 'Price and service' rating comes in at 7/10.
- Room size for families — One guest noted that standard rooms may be snug for family trips; the larger suites are an option but come at a higher cost.
- Limited dining hours — The hotel is known for its bar and restaurant, but with check-in until 23:59 and no 24-hour kitchen, late arrivals may find food options limited beyond the snack bar and vending machines.
