"It has a central location beside government buildings... requented by political figures."
Time Out
"The rooms are distributed across three Georgian buildings and exude charm, from their hefty Georgian windows to the views of the broad streets below." Full review

"Not so much grand as comfortable and quaint, with a matchless situation in the very heart of the city. The Aircoach stops across the road." Full review
Frommer's
"An old-school air pervades this rather traditional midpriced hotel...small but decently furnished guest rooms are modern in style." Full review

Guests with mobility problems should ask for a room on a lower floor, as the old building (actually three townhouses merged together) has many staircases.
