We chose the Loden after reading previous reviews and we were not disapponted. We were greeted by the lovely reception staff and instantly you got the feel that you had entered a nice hotel. Indeed throughout our stay all of the staff were superb. The taxi from the airport was a fixed rate 31 CD. Our toom on the sixth floor was well presented, corner settee, the bed ever so comfortable great pillows. Bathroom with bath and shower, great soaps. Very quiet and we slept great after busy days. The hotel has its own London taxi, well I say London, this hackney is designed as a dog and attracts attention as you drive through the city. You book a time and the taxi takes you on the outward journey, a great touch Loden and most appreciated. The hotel is within easy walking distance of the seafront, many great restaurants and just two blocks from those shops ladies. Your room comes with robes and slippers, another nice touch. Tea and coffee provided in the morning in the foyer, we would have liked this to have been offered late afternoon and at bedtime as well, Maybe???. The restaurant menu we found to be a little limited, but hey it was always quite full. One thing we were not told was in the bedroom there is a switch to request room made up or do not disturb. Ice and chocs brought to your room each evening, lovely. One final thing, thanks to all at the Loden and we willmbe back if we return to this wonderful city.

We arrived earlier than expected and they were able to accommodate a early check-in. Customer service was excellent. We took advantage of the complementary car service around downtown which was great. Overall quiet, clean and spacious room.
