Great central location
08 Jun 2026
The location of this hotel could not be better. Two minutes walk from the railway station and the tram hub to anywhere in the city. The staff are really friendly and helpful and the breakfasts are great. The room is really well cared for - just not large! They had paid attention to the request for quiet though so can’t complain. It was over the back. The front would be noisy.The location of this hotel could not be better. Two minutes walk from the railway station and the tram hub to anywhere in the city.
