Lovely room, although extremely hot in Summer. We were grateful for a large fan left in the room. The staff were quite standoffish and we felt like we were a hassle asking for anything, so that is the main reason we didn't give this 4/5.

Clean, modern, whimsically-renovated rooms and a superb location. Noise isn't really an issue. Staff is responsive and winsome. I look forward to returning!

Love the Alice in Wonderland theme. We stayed in Alice’s Chambers, all blue and white, very charming and pretty. Everything was newly renovated and impressive. Fabulous shower with TWO shower heads and push-button temperature control. Very nice bathroom, although there was no outlet … is this a UK thing? We’re 1 for 4 so far on bathrooms with an outlet. Comfortable bed, plenty of hot water, lots of outlets, big TV, no on-site staff but excellent by-phone service when the Wifi needed to be reset. Plenty of restaurants and shops nearby, and an easy walk to the Botannic Garden, the Covered Market, a large park with a great view of the city, and the train station. On the less good side, there’s no elevator and three flights of stairs with our heavy luggage was not fun. We tried to message them ahead of time for assistance, but Expedia said the mailbox was full and could not accept more messages. There’s a bar on the ground floor, very noisy at night until the live music stops - 10:00 one night, midnight the next.

A noisy bar reverberated into our tiny room each night. And it was a 3 story walk up with no lift.

Fabulous hotel, great stay
The hotel was amazing! Ideally situated Lovely themed rooms, very quirky and brilliantly authentic. Spacious, clean, comfortable and great facilities. The staff were attentive and responded swiftly and positively to our communications about the booking. Attention to detail and an even a kind gift for my daughter’s birthday. Would certainly recommend.

Bar with Rooms
Our room was on the top floor but sounded like the bar was next door. Music blared out until after 1am on Saturday night, followed by revellers shouting on the street. No chance of getting any sleep before 1.30am. No breakfast facilities and self check in. Staff (Jess) were very responsive, but service quite slow in the bar. A bar with rooms rather than a hotel with a bar.
