For the price we paid, the value was excellent and the room was comfortable and clean. The location was convenient, with easy access to nearby food places. The staff at Gallivant were friendly and attentive, making our stay even more enjoyable.

Breakfast offerings could be improved with a wider variety of options.

As longer term business travelers, we appreciate the ample parking space, convenient water dispensers on each floor, and friendly staff. The hotel's modern and minimalist design creates a pleasant environment. The rooms are clean and comfortable with good air conditioning. We also liked the central location, making it easy to access popular shops and the foodie area.

Felt right at home, no complaints whatsoever.

Convenient water dispenser, helpful staff, ample parking, clean rooms, minimalist concept.

It was all superb.

7.0/10

United Kingdom, May 2023

The hotel's design is modern, sleek and simple. the efficient use of small spaces is impressive, and there is ample parking available with helpful staff to assist when needed.

Limited parking space made finding a spot difficult, and the creaky elevator was noticeable. the bathroom's small size and shower door's inability to close tightly resulted in some water spillage.

8.6/10

United Kingdom, January 2023

The hotel is conveniently located near to most areas and nearby attractions. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the rooms are bright and clean. There is a water cooler machine available for guests, and they also offer a self-service laundry service. Additionally, the hotel provides basic necessities like hair shampoo, body shampoo, and towels. The kids can be entertained with Netflix.

The hotel lacks basic amenities such as shampoo, body shampoo, and hair dryer, and the rooms are small and uncomfortable.
