Are rooms soundproofed?

Rooms are in a converted warehouse with period features. Ground-floor and courtyard-facing rooms tend to be quieter than those over the bar. Request a courtyard or upper-floor room when booking if noise is a concern. Check recent guest reviews for your specific room location.

Is breakfast included?

Breakfast is not included in standard room rates but can be added for approximately £15 per person. The bistro serves continental and cooked options. Book ahead if you want breakfast in the vaulted cellar rather than in your room.

What's the parking situation?

The hotel has no on-site car park. Guests use nearby paid multi-story car parks - Grey's Monument Car Park is 2 minutes' walk away and charges approximately £3-4 per hour. Street parking is rare in the city centre.
