CHARACTER & STYLE

There's a real 1950s aesthetic to the hotel, with rich velvet upholstery and bespoke furniture. Tram lines once ran past the hotel, so there's a nod to its past with plenty of train references.

THE FACILITIES

Book an Executive Room or Suite to have access to the lounge, well stocked with snacks and drinks. The steam café on the ground floor is ideal for fuelling up for a day of meetings - and the coffee comes from local roastery Cloud Picker.
