Just a 5 minute walk from Central Station and located in a quiet courtyard setting. Friendly staff, nice clean rooms, great shower. This is a popular hotel for stag and hen parties but the hotel dedicates the first two floors to these parties to ensure other guests are not inconvenienced by noise etc. Good value for money.

The hotel was good, Able to check in early, service and food as expected. Although the website suggests that they charge £5 for parking that isn't strictly true. They direct you to a multi-storey next door. Don't park in the residents spaces. It is £5 from 8am to 5pm and free after that until 8am the next day. There is... More

This was my third time staying at this hotel and it just gets better every time! Our rooms were spotless and cleaned daily. Breakfast has definitely got better as hot alternatives are available and plenty of everything to go round. The staff were so warm and welcoming, they couldn't do enough for us, even when one of our group lost... More

Had a very comfortable stay in HIE . Room clean and fresh. Bed very comfortable, good shower. Breakfast room calm and comfortable for buffet style service. Hot food hot but not dry. Staff very helpful especially when we left a mobile phone behind. One quick phone call and the phone arrived 24hrs later. Impressive efficient service.

I didnt have to wait long for my room key as the reception staff were quick and efficient in checking in people. The room I was allocated was on the 4th floor near to the lifts and... More
