Amazing redevelopment of an old warehouse in provide luxurious accommodation in a beautiful building. Do not be put off by the surroundings, it is obviously an area that was once quite industrial but is gradually becoming a cool destination. Two minutes walk from the marina, and the restaurants associated with that area. Staff were delightful, ‘standard’ room felt very luxurious and very, very quiet. Delicious breakfast. Just wish we’d booked for more nights. Highly recommend.
