Best rooms
Request a room on the first or second floor at the rear of the building, away from the main road. The upper floors are quieter and less affected by any passing traffic on Rue de la Mare or the adjacent lanes.
Request a room on a higher floor (3rd or above) for a quieter stay, as the hotel is located on a busy main street (St. Peters Road) in Castel. This will help minimize noise from passing traffic and potential evening revellers.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms facing the street — they're closest to any road noise and foot traffic. Also skip rooms directly above or next to the lift or service areas, if possible, as these can have mechanical hums from morning to late evening.
Avoid rooms facing the main street (St. Peters Road) or near the service entrance, as they may be noisier due to the hotel's location.
