I chose this hotel for a special visit with family and choice was based on the review in hotels.com, the proximity to the centre and the nice bar where we could relax at the end of the day before going out to dinner. It’s cold in Jan and this is a necessary luxury.
I was very surprised to be told that they did not have a bar due to refurbishment. This is not advertised on hotels.com and not on their website. We therefore had nowhere to relax and enjoy a supposedly Superb hotel. We were told that we could sit in our rooms and relax and use the water filter machine outside in the corridor. This is NOT what I signed up for. We would have been better to stay in a central hostel or cheaper hotel and use local bars.
Moreover, the hotel does not have a parking so you use the recommended parking choices from the hotel. They said that they were all the same price so park at the nearest one, round the corner. In fact, this was twice the price of the alternatives 3 extra minutes walk away. They should know this at the very least.
Breakfast was OK, but strange to sit in a room without a window. In fact, the hotel is called Bellevue, but I did not find any window to the outside other than to a central roof and fire escape.
Very convenient in location, but not Bellevue and not Wonderful
