One of the best apartments I have stayed. Very central and easy access. The C block and the tower blocks are great place to stay. All the staff are friendly and very helpful. Alastair was very helpful organizing tours. He made my stay at this hotel very pleasant. He also took time out to talk to us everyday to see... More

Excellent rooms, massive and well equipped (I've stayed in a 1 and 2 bed). I'm on my own but this would be brilliant with the family as there is a full kitchen including washing machine and dishwasher. Close to long street if you like that sort of thing and 5 mins in a cab (15 min walk) to v&a etc.... More

I stayed in an apartment in this Aparthotel over Christmas 2011. I found the apartment to be of good size and got a reasonable discount of the published rate. The only disappointment was the pool area which was not serviced except by phone. There were no cushions for the sunbeds and no bathing towels supplied. Surely a serviced pool would... More

To put it simply - we will go back to this hotel. Fantastic, well established in the heart of CT. We are a family of 4 and had a most enjoyable stay for a week in a two-bed executive apartment. This apartments has everything from fully fitted kitchen to well equiped lounge, dining and bedrooms. Will go back there...without doubt More

This is the classic example of a hotel that fails to deliver the 4 star service expected! The room we were given was meant to be a junior suite but it was a disaster! We were on the first floor above the restaurant with the bedroom window facing the hotel atrium, which was noisy all times and there was no... More

We really liked the place. We were 2 couples in different types of rooms (number starting with W and F) and both of them were spacious with kitchenettes. It also had a washer and dryer which we didn't use. Big refrigerator with enough pots/pans/glasses of all kinds/spatulas/silver/etc. The thing we loved the most though was the service and it's location.... More
