Nice hotel but the jury is out

6.0

The staff, aesthetic, food was lovely

− I didn't think the hotel was value for money. The room was dated, had people looking into it from a terrace, the lighting was complicated for no reason and they wanted to charge me to use an adapter for my phone cable

Small dark rooms but good party hotel

5.0

Access to a communal terrace, the staff were excellent and responsive and respectful, breakfast food was very good and the bar is fun.

− The rooms are too small and cramped, the overall decore is very dark and not meant for daytime use. The room i was allocated didnt jave space to lay down my suitcase to open it .. let alone two suitcases for a couple. The staff were great and arranged for us to move to a bigger room that had a wooden uncomfortable sofa and table and one small closet. I feel the concept of their hotel style is outdated and needs a redesign. I will not be staying here again.

Unique hotel with cool design

7.0

It's a beautiful hotel in a good location. It has unique design and features. The staff were friendly. They offer a complimentary drink in the bar and the rooms have a well stocked mini bar.

− Unfortunately, the soundproofing for the rooms is not very good. This was especially a problem at night in the Terrace room where you could hear the music in the bar to the early hours of the morning. I'm assuming this is only a weekend but something to keep in mind when booking

Sarah · GB · 2026-08-31

Great location and unusual, in a great way, vibe. Great staff, particularly Noah behind the bar

10.0

Very interesting decor and atmosphere

− Nothing springs to mind
