Best rooms
Private rooms on the first floor are the best option as they are located via a staircase, which is less likely to be noisy compared to the ground floor. Request a room on the first floor to avoid street noise.
On the second floor, rooms on the side facing the front driveway (not the main road) are likely to be quieter, as they are farther from the street noise. This floor has less foot traffic, and the lift serves all floors, making it easily accessible.
Rooms to avoid
Ground floor rooms are best avoided due to the single step at the main door, which may be a concern for guests with mobility issues. Additionally, the ground floor rooms may be noisier due to potential street noise.
Avoid rooms near the lift, as the sound of the lift machinery can be noticeable. Additionally, rooms near the service entrance may be prone to noise from staff and deliveries.
