Very nice hotel, close to railway station so ideal for me and without any noise. Stayed in a suite, very well laid out with plenty of room. My only negative comment would be one of the basins in the bathroom was stained which was a little visually off-putting, but no other concerns.

The service was up to the normal Malmaison level, the hotel itself is ok. It needs some maintenance - the lifts look tatty, the bathroom sink needed the drain clearing so the water actually ran out properly. It was ok for a 'bed for the night' but didn't feel premium.
