theatre deal
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 9/9/07
Two 'old' school friends and I spent one night here booking through a theatre deal, celebrating a 60th birthday! We were delighted at the reasonable price of the deal, but although we were promised a 4 star hotel, expected a room overlooking the dustbins at the very least!
We were delighted to find ourselves on the 11th floor with a very nice view. The room was perfect and even the camp bed made up for the third occupier was, I was assured, very comfortable. We slept with the window open all night so the traffic noise was there but not unbearable. The bathroom was superb, had a little trouble adjusting the very powereful shower but I'm sure with a little more practice......! We only had two cups in the room but after advising reception staff, another was put in there by the time we returned from our theatre visit(which was also great!).
The breakfast was first class with every possible choice(except there were no fried eggs but I feel sure if we'd have asked we would have got them).
The reception and waiting staff were very pleasant and efficient.
The location was fine and the local hostelries looked very inviting if only we had had more time!
We will definitely book in here again if(more like when)we return for another visit even if only for the lovely view from the panoramic lift!. Hopefully next time it will be for longer.
