"Room was large, comfortable, and very clean. The balcony was much bigger than expected. Staff is great and the property is perfectly located in the middle of the city."

James Cook Hotel Grand Chancellor

10/10 Excellent

"Check in and check out was a breeze with very friendly staff. Rooms were tidy and spacious. Shower was huge with excellent pressure. Towels were soft and a great size. Beds and pillows were very comfortable. Would not hesitate to recommend to family and friends. Will definitely stay again."

Aura Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean, spacious and the bed was comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful and had a lot of local information. It was great to have a kitchen, which had everything you need, to make your own food. Very easy transport links (bus stop right outside the hotel) and a good location; very close to bars, restaurants and shops. Very cheap accommodation, very good value for money - I would highly recommend this hotel."
