river views was a treat
onsite parking helpful fridge christmas decorations
the hotel offered onsite parking for a discounted price. my club double room included a fridge which i find very helpful. the christmas decorations throughout the lobby added a very cosy feel to my visit this year. the sofa seating area near the fire was a lovely touch.
i found that the shower pressure in my room was abit low, not a dealbreaker though.
