I just stayed for two nights here for my friends birthday weekend, we shared a twin room and I was really impressed. Very clean which is so important, comfy beds, plenty of space for both of us and fun decor. The staff were really helpful and friendly, but left us to it, which I like. Breakfast was good, I loved...

The rooms are beautifully decorated, I managed to see 3 rooms, and each one was different. Everything was exceptionally clean and tidy, and the staff couldn't be more helpful. Breakfast was amazing, with a wide choice (from american pancakes, to mushrooms and halloumi cheese) you could eat something different everyday of the week.

We stayed 2 nights here midweek and were very impressed with it. The location is brilliant, the price reasonable (especially with 10% off as we have stayed before). It has all been redecorated and the room was spacious and spotless and we liked the original artist's decor on the walls which made it extra special . The breakfast was delicious,... More

Can't thank the staff at the Artist Residence enough. We stayed over the hectic Marathon weekend. When we arrived it was freezing cold and incredibly windy, thankfully the staff were kind enough to bring up an extra heater to keep us warm. Our room was immaculate, complete with original artwork adorning the walls. The rest of the hotel was thoroughly... More
