I booked this hotel mainly for the view but there's only about 4 or 5 tables in the bar area with the window view (which we asked for but didn't get). We had to dine in the bar for our evening meal (VERY busy) as we were told the restaurant didn't open on a Monday (this was not ideal). As I booked through hotels.com we didn't get the breakfast as part of the cost (which apparently we would've if we'd booked direct with hotel). The room was quite small with a small window overlooking part of the roof and side lane. The meal was tasty (no need to consider a tip as the service charge is added whether you want to or not). I did receive half dozen chocolates as it was my birthday which I thought was kind. And,not that the hotel can do anything about this, but the bridges didn't light up (like on my previous visit) and when I googled why it said cost and environmental issues. Quite sad as it was indeed a sight to see.
