"Billed as a 'designer hotel on a budget' and housed in a mirrored tower block, this place feels stark and functional."
DK Eyewitness DK Eyewitness
"A stylish hotel at affordable prices, housed in a converted 1960s office block. The interior is self-consciously retro, but the rooms are contemporary and comfortable, with en suite amenities."
Rough Guide Rough Guide
"Opposite the huge Motorpoint Arena, this hotel feels exactly like the old office block it once was, but is a fun budget option."
