We stayed here for a gig (BFMV & Trivium) and I can’t say anything bad. Reading some of the other reviews did make me nervous about my stay but the room me and my fiancè had was clean, tidy and warm. We left our luggage in the room and locked the door behind us and everything was fine. The staff were lovely, when we came back in at 1am ish that night they were dealing with an unfortunate aggressive drunk guy at the doors and security handled him very very well without escalating the situation. Check in was smooth, check out was even smoother (you just plonk the keycard in the bin at the desk). Overall, I would be happy to stay here again.

Didnt like the fact that i couldn't get wifi reception on the top floor far sode rooms of the hotel. Needed to come out of my room to read my emails. Apart from that the staff were lovely. Do however suspect the cleaner took my universal plug and charger with cord from my room after i accidentally left it behind. I only had 1 small bag with me and after emptying it out could not find my plugs and cord. I went back to the hotel later and they were kind enough to check and show me the room after the report came back thet nothing was found in the room. Must admit that the staff who helped me were amazing but i am about 80 percent convinced that the cleaner most likely took my plugs and cord and didnt tell anyone aboit it. They were kinda unique given that the pligs in SA differ to the ones in the UK, thus my universal plug that goes for aboit 25 pounds being taken as well. However withoit proof its just my 80 percent surity that i have because i parked in the car park directly ipposite the hotel so the only place it would have been would be my small bag or the room where i last remember using it .
