“You’ll instantly feel relaxed in King Street Townhouse, a charming 40-room boutique hotel. From its infinity spa-pool with a spectacular view of the Town Hall clock, and stylish public areas, to bedrooms you’ll struggle to leave, this is an indulgent retreat in the city centre.”
“This beautiful 1872 Italian Renaissance–style former bank is now an exquisite boutique hotel with 40 bedrooms ranging from snug to suite.

Exceptional
Really comfy bed. Top quality cosmetics. Towels and robes were high spec as well as the bedding. The free standing mirror was a lovely touch to the bedroom. Room service was really convenient and saving the best til last, the spa was out of this world.

Great location and comfortable for short stay
Good location. Rooftop pool. Nice bar and lounge area. Decor felt warm and homely.
Staff polite but not particularly helpful. Room was a little dark - not much natural light.

Great Hotel, just deliver on what you advertise
Rooms are absolutely spotless, staff are friendly and attentive. Breakfast is good, not sure it's great value for money but it's optional.
Indoor pool is advertised as Adults Only and it definitely isn't. At check in a family were openly advised of location of tge pool and opening times. No mention that it's adults only, and an hour later the family were in the pool Friday 3rd 1530 ish

Great hotel, nice spa, pool area and very clean
Excellent hotel, staff very friendly on arrival and explained our stay. We used the Spa which was an extra £20 each which you don't really need to use as they have a brilliant pool and steam room for free but still a nice added bonus. The room was spotless, lovely towels, shampoos and bed to sleep very comfortable. The hotel was also very clean and fantastic scented odour throughout.
Only 1 issue, in the Spa lack of provided water and had to ask to fill up which took a while. Maybe a more larger water supply setup in spa and pool area. Very minor issue

Fabulous hotel will definitely stay again
Amazing boutique hotel very comfortable with a fantastic gym and rooftop jacuzzi pool. The breakfast was excellent and the staff were extremely polite and welcoming. A lovely touch left in the bedroom for my husbands birthday thank you

Excellent boutique hotel worth a second (actually third) visit
Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent restaurant and bar. Quiet central location so 5 min walk to the main city shops and amenities. Boutique hotel feel rather than a chain.
TV died on my last evening - not a disaster just one of those things.

Lovely stay at a very beautiful hotel. Yes expensive but the pool and steam room make it worth
Excellent service, staff went above and beyond. Had a very comfortable bed, and the best bath tub ever!
Shower needs a door/curtain as water goes everywhere

Lovely 😊
Interiors
Shame my daughter couldn’t use the infinity pool, wasn’t well advertised the age limit.

Perfect date day/night for couples
Beautiful hotel. Rooms are lovely. The top roof spa is absolutely stunning!
We don’t realise the other new spa was next door, but when we tried to access it in the morning we were told we couldn’t because we booked through booking.com rather than directly through the hotel which left me disappointed .

Lovely
Gorgeous room, lovely bathroom, the coffee making station was lovely and the shower was amazing. Whole building was lovely and the staff were courteous
Wish they had been clearer on prices- I think I was charged for using the shower gel in the shower when usually this is included in the price. Pillows were too soft for me
