Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is a mixed bag - with some good points like the close proximity to the pub that also showed boxing matches, but also drawbacks like being close to the noisy bar area. The rooms had separate beds, some dirty tables, but offered a good continental selection. The service was a hit-and-miss, while the location was a bit noisy being in the pub or the adjoining Waggon Team pub. The dining experience featured Sicilian products which added a unique flavor. The overall value for money was reasonable.
The hotel is located just outside the city center, in a mainly industrial area down to the roundabout. The rooms have a good continental selection but the tables were dirty. The service was traditional Greek products, and the pub next to it made the location convenient. The facilities were well-maintained, but the Wi-Fi had to be paid for separately.
The hotel is conveniently located in a mainly industrial area, with the adjoining pub next door. The rooms have a good continental selection on dirty tables but offer separate beds. The service was exceptional, despite the high price. The dining experience, focusing on Japanese food, was delightful. The facilities were adequate, though pricey for what was provided.
