...an excellent hotel very close to the airport. ideal for late arrivals or early departures. the hotel caters for people's needs well, including disposable razors and toiletries if you forget them or if luggage has been lost somewhere- it does happen. the food and drink service is excellent and the staff aim to cater for your dietary needs as well. it is family friendly and the rooms are spacious and have double glazing. there is a courtesy bus from/to the airport, you just need to use the complimentary phone in arrivals hall or hotel reception and they will come and pick up from outside the arrivals hall. They also have smoking rooms to avail as you wish. A smloking area outside as well.... Read review
