Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Check-in window is limited — Guests can check in only between 14:00 and 23:59, so late-night arrivals may need to plan ahead.
  • On the outskirts of the old town — While convenient for Nimman, the location is a bit outside the main tourist area, so some sights require a short drive or taxi.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so travellers with animals must look elsewhere.
  • Some inconsistency in service — A few reviewers noted that although service was generally solid, certain staff members seemed indifferent at times.
  • Price point is above average — At £859 per night, this is a jump from the area average rating (8.6), and value scores slightly lower than room and service.
