Best rooms
Request a room on a higher floor (above the 5th floor) for a quieter stay, as the lower floors may experience more street noise from the surrounding area. Additionally, rooms on the north side of the hotel may receive more natural light and have better views of the surrounding cityscape.
Request a room on a higher floor (above the 5th floor) to minimize street noise from Church Street. Consider rooms 601-703, which are likely to be quieter due to their distance from the lift and service entrance.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms near the lift may experience more noise disturbance from the elevator shaft. If you're a light sleeper, it's best to avoid rooms on the lower floors, especially those near the service entrance, which may have more foot traffic.
Avoid rooms on the lower floors (1-3) and those adjacent to the service entrance, as they may be noisier due to the proximity to the entrance and potential delivery noise.
