Expert reviews

Lonely Planet review:

“This former church is a longtime favourite for its decadent decor and plush lines. Stylish rooms with mood lighting have a dark, brooding tone and opulent furnishings.”

Telegraph review:

“Nothing orthodox about this former Greek Orthodox Church, transformed into a stylish modern boutique hotel in a city centre location. There’s a lively lounge bar, excellent brasserie dining and a casual bar.”

Lovely overnight stay

We had a lovely overnight stay in this beautiful old building. The staff were absolutely lovely. Dinner and breakfast in the restaurant were great and the cocktails were very good. Huge room. Nice and quiet.

The sink was very slow to drain and the bathroom could generally do with a bit of maintenance.

Great stylish boutique city hotel

Nothing really. If anything, the bar area could be a bit more cosy, divided up a bit. Due to the high ceiling, its a bit too open

The building was amazing, beautiful and very clean.

The location was very difficult to get to. Top of a hill for people with mobility problems like ourselves was quite difficult. When I booked the map said it was city centre but it's not.

Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable of local area for parking etc and bed and bedding was very comfortable

No charging point or suitable plug at beside and lighting in bedroom was either very dull with beside lamps on or very bright with spot lights on . Also bathroom sink was leaking didn't notice untill we were checking out so reported to reception on our departure

Very pleasant stay in convenient central location with excellent staff and restaurant.

Staff were super-helpful and pleasant to deal with The heritage building has a lovely ambience. The restaurant and bar were excellent too.

Nothing important. Maybe having to climb up the stairs.

One night stay

Good location for Hydro (15 min walk) One of ladies at reception was very welcoming and chatty when checking out. Lovely comfy bed with good feather pillows, clean white sheets, towels and robes.

For us, the room was too dark; Need lights in cupboards to see when making tea/coffee and for hanging clothes, Very loud creaking floorboards in our room and rooms around making it noisy, no full length mirror or make up mirror in bathroom, no face cloths or rail for hand towel. Room was dusty esp bathroom and radiators, crack marks in sink, No fridge in room. Our personal suggestions would make it a deluxe room as sold to us and match other deluxe rooms we’ve stayed in.

Most enjoyable stay in a city centre hotel.

Lovely building with tasteful decor and decorations. It started raining just as we were about to depart to our concert but the receptionist called for a taxi. Breakfast was delicious with a choice of continental or more tradional cooked items cooked to order.

5 stars all round. Brekki could be better

Staff were outstanding. Friendly and Welcoming as always Rooms were perfect, and comfy lovely and chilled. Wine with dinner was nice.

Bar menu after 7pm was limited to burgers and wee bit pricey. Breakfast was a tad on the dry side , like not as fresh as normal even though it was 7am.

Nice hotel that is close to two vibrant neighbourhoods.

Reception staff were always friendly and helpful. Dining room is modern with a good menu. Construction noise outside was not the hotel's fault - they offered me a quieter atrium view room but I preferred the street view. Area in general is quiet but yet so close to two vibrant neighbourhoods.

Nothing - great place to stay!

Lovely setting and staff

Boldly presented and delicious food.

Mattress had a good and bad side. I only found the good support bit at the end of my stay. Could you consider offering the nightly discount dishes to prepaid customers please? Have the IT person include it in as option c for prepaid package deals-it would be easy enough to add in.

Comfortable overall.

Fairly comfortable room overall, though room 259 has a faulty kettle and also a sink unit in the bathroom with a plug that doesn’t work. Very friendly helpful staff - the best thing about the hotel.

Lighting in the bedroom and in the communal bar and restaurant was incredibly dim and gloomy - needs a complete revamp by a lighting expert

Nice stay

The hotel was lovely, very clean & a very cool hotel room. We had a suite which was over 2 floors & a very big comfortable bed.

I had advised when booking it was a special occasion & nothing was done / not even a little card in the room or anything - which is fine but not what I expected. Not the best place for “girls getting ready” as the lighting throughout the whole room was so poor, (I’ve stayed in the standard room before and the suite and both the same throughout) yellow overheard lights & big shadows, no floor length mirror can only really get ready in the bathroom. Went to the restaurant for dinner and the food was average. For the price of the suite compared to other of same value, I’d probably return to Radisson blu/ Dakota instead as the staff there couldn’t do enough for you
