Clarion Hotel The Hub
Great hotel with comfortable rooms & THE best buffet breakfast we have ever experienced-it was truly incredible. The opportunity to have a barista make a ‘proper’ coffee for you was a really nice touch, as were the ginger & lemon shots. Nice helpful staff, good size rooms. Great location.
