This hotel was probably quite spectacular in the 1980's when it was opened and last decorated but unfortunately it is badly in need of a facelift. Our flight was delayed so we were late in arriving at the hotel which im sure is not uncommon. When we got to the room we discovered it was in fact a smoking room!... More

What a disgrace to our wonderful city this hotel is. My room was very dated (dirty walls, threadbare carpets, old CRT tv), dirty and smelt like an ashtray. I'm relatively well travelled and have stayed in budget hotels around the world inlcuding Africa, South America and Asia. Without exception this has to be the most unpleasant hotel I've ever stayed... More

this was the first and last time I stayed at the Brittania. For the money I expected a lot more but quite frankly what I got was a very tired, shabby Victorian building badly in need of major investment. The reception was very impressive with the huge chandelier and open stairs but it is the rooms that tell the tale.... More

On arrival we were told that we had been upgraded to Superior Executive rooms. We found that there were two coach tour groups in the same hotel... More
