Beautiful hotel with lovely decor and original features. Staff we're welcoming and friendly. Didn't want to get out of the humongous bed and probably wouldn't if I hadn't got my fave city just outside. Our room was on the 4th floor so we didn't hear any noise from outside. The hotel bar restaurant served amazing food at reasonable prices. Room service breakfast was good value and the 'hot option' in the bar outstanding.

Excellent stay at The Place. Very pleasantly surprised when we arrived to check in. The hotel was lovely and clean and our room was fabulous with both bedrooms having en suite bathrooms. As we were only staying one night we didn't really use any of the facilities but the ones which were there were lovely clean and modern. The lounge area was huge and very comfortable. The only negative was air conditioning or rather lack of it! The triple room was very stuffy and hot? We had a very small fan which was going like the clappers all night but hardly created any air at all! Apart from that we had no complaints at all! In fact we have just booked again to stay here later in the year!

I did morning shower around 9:00 am no more hot water !!!!!! Next day no problem ! Breakfast is good ! Coffee no good ! But you can order latte is good!!!!!

The hotel is conveniently located in city centre. We got taxi from Piccadilly station for £4.10. Its quite a short walk from the station. Huge double bed. Very clean room. Bathroom had great shower. Views down Portland street towards Town Hall from our 11th floor room. The other side of hotel overlooks Piccadilly and the big wheel. There is a huge bar/terrace on 3rd floor overlooking Piccadilly. Don't miss having a drink there to see the view

Very nice stay,never stayed in a holiday inn before.very clean and all facilities in the room were very good.breakfast nice and helpfull staff on reception.

We booked 3 rooms for a family trip to celebrate a graduation. It was perfect, all the rooms were immaculate and really stylish. It's very central. We ate breakfast at Cafe a North just next door, far more reasonably priced. Would recommend the English Lounge for drinks and food, it's 500 metres away.

The hotel is by far the best we have been in for some time and the fact that it is so new must have a great deal to do with it. The room was fantastic, clean and a brilliant air conditioning system. Breakfast was ok however no- one seemed to know what to do and we had to make several trips to ensure we had everything and the milk ran out and so did the coffee machine. However that was trivial really and did not spoil a thing. We got the 'guest of the day' treat, a free drink and a snack.... We are still waiting for the snack! We would most definitely stay again and also recommend it to friends.
