Low level of service akin to a hostel - very limited hours for the pool and gym, restaurants close at 9 but actually well before that and rooms a bit tired with old fittings. Rooms are a good size and are clean, bathrooms good. Staff are pleasant ( if a bit helpless when asked things like ' Can I get... More

Very poor design. It looks like a builder has done a bodged job on this hotel. Some parts have been partially modernisied others left and very out of date. My bedroom room was large, but nothing quite fitted. The wardrobe fro clothes far too small. Difficult to get to the safe or to use it. The carpet old and smelly.... More

Ground floor has an old cafe which very unclassy and cheap types. Reception is in a room in the lobby which kept me searching for it on check... More

The hotel location also can't be beat -- with plenty of restaurants, stores and shops in walking distance. This definitely supersedes... More

This hotel is a vile 80s timewarp. The rooms aren't comfortable, the blinds do not block out the light and the internet connection was a shocker!... More

The Howard plaza provides relatively spacious rooms. They are equipped with full size bath rooms (with separate shower and bath), a small anteroom with a wardrobe and a kingsize bed. The technical furnishing is up to date but not luxurious. The air condition system is pleasantly quiet. Rooms are serviced daily with new towels and linen. The interior of the... More
