My room, a Beautiful King Room, was warm and very comfortable! I found the breakfast excellent, and there was lots of choice.

The parking was very expensive for a location away from the city center. I also thought decent WiFi should be free. It seemed like a way to pinch pennies after an already expensive stay.

Adequate Stay, Issues with Food

spacious roomconvenient proximityunimaginative menuoverpriced room

The room was spacious and well equipped. It included everything I needed. The hotel's proximity to the stadium was convenient. It made attending the rugby match very easy.

I found the dinner menu to be unimaginative, with only one vegetarian option. The room I booked felt overpriced. It was of similar quality to a budget hotel.
