Concierge was very helpful considerate and inviting from the moment we arrived, the hotel itself was very clean and the rooms delightful and would stay again the only downfall was they would not replenish the water bottles or the small milks every day (we were there for 5 days) for the kettle in our room so we could have coffee. but one word to the staff and they would rectify it straight away, ideal location close to the waterfront and main streets easy to get to places for dining

Good location to access the city. The breakfast was excellent good choice and fresh. Staff were helpful and friendly. Disappointed that there was little prior notification of the refurbishment work going on. The jack hammer noise during the day reverberated throughout the hotel, with no offer of any compensation to the guests
