Best rooms
Request a top-floor room at the rear (garden-facing side) for quietest sleep. The third floor minimises footfall from above and backs away from Roxwell Road traffic.
Request a room on a higher floor (above 3rd floor) to minimize street noise from Skreens Park Road. Given the hotel has a lift, rooms on higher floors are also more likely to have solid concrete floors, which tend to reduce noise from foot traffic.
Rooms to avoid
Steer clear of ground-floor rooms near reception or the front entrance – street noise from Roxwell Road plus lobby bustle. Also avoid rooms directly above the bar or breakfast area if you mind clatter at 7am.
Rooms near the lift (elevator) or service entrance might experience more noise, especially if you're a light sleeper.
