I was so impressed by this property and especially the front desk staff and housekeeping. Perfect location for my stay and felt safe and comfortable the entire time which does not always happen with properties near train stations. Will definitely book again and tell colleagues. Thank you!

Great location. Is perfect location to start out from whether walking, by train or metro and after a day of sightseeing, being beside the main station is a bonus. Being beside the shops in the station, which are open on Sundays and late into the night, was also very convenient. We were on first floor and while there was some street noise it wasn't an issue for us and we slept well.

If arriving by car, beware. Two lanes of taxi rank in front of hotel. No where for us to park. Had to find a public car park, then walk to hotel to check in. Staff advised us to park just off footpath then unload bags from car. Then given instructions of hotel accredited car park which is a 8 minute walk away. If arriving by train, no worries, as station opposite hotel. Think that hotel website could give forward warnings of car parking situation in advance.

Excellent and super-friendly staff. But be careful if you take this hotel because of the gym and SPA, since you will use the public gym next to the hotel with strange rules, like no gym-tops allowed, and also the sauna was not working on Sunday :(
