–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Compact rooms — Rooms are on the small side – fine for a short stay but not for sprawling out.
- Limited facilities — As a 2-star, there's no gym, spa, or extensive on-site dining beyond breakfast.
- Value for money varies — Rates from £143/night are higher than typical for the category, especially given the compact rooms.
- Street-level noise potential — The central station and cathedral area means constant footfall and city bustle outside; soundproofing helps but doesn't eliminate it.
