A nice budget hotel with good amenities. Great location right on the embankment. The staff were super nice and helpful. Ample parking to the rear (£5 per 24 hours). Great view of the river from the restaurant.

I loved the room. Good AC, nice decor, lovely shower. The downsides were, the curtains were too small and let the light in too early, very little surface space and ineffective extraction in shower room.

There is an open air parking area at the rear of the hotel. There is a flight of stairs at the rear door to get up to the main lobby floor. The lift provided there was out of order through most of my stay and my 89 year old mother had to make her way up and down the stairs. Similarly the breakfast room was a floor above the lobby and my mother had to climb the stairs up and down each morning. If there was a lift to get there, no member of staff pointed out where it was.

It was a Privilege Room, great view of the river. Good size room, comfortable bed - all as advertised. Not sure what happened to the daily newspaper, as described on the room details. Good breakfast, easy parking.

On the River Ouse. Quite away from main town centre and night life. Was perfect for a night away. Room was clean, but hotel buildings dated especially windows, don't open the net curtains, I think they're there to hide the windows!!

Ok, fair, reasonable, and easy parking

The staff were all lovely and the bar areas are really nice and modern. Location is good and has easy access parking. The rooms have been sort of updated, and look ok. Our complaint was the windows. They rattled all night and wind just howled. I got very little sleep. Am sure it wouldn’t of been as bad had it not been for the high winds last night

This property is horrible. I was made to stand and buzzed for almost 7 mins before the door was opened with no apologies.For a hotel where rooms cost over £100, I expected more. I was checked a cubicle where I could hardly walk around. I bumped into the all the time. Heating was centrally controlled and I slept in a cold room. There was no shower cream. Corridors are very narrow and you have to walk to the other end of the property to get to the reception. No telephone to contact reception, they expected guests to conact reception by WhatsApp for help. Shambles and won't recommend..
