Unfortunately, our recent stay at Porter House Hotel didn’t meet expectations, especially for a hotel positioned as 5-star. We had booked adjoining rooms, clearly stating this was essential for our 10-month-old baby.

I recently spent five days at Porter House and had a truly enjoyable experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff at the reception were incredibly accommodating and attentive to all our requests.

The room itself was exceptionally comfortable, with a pleasant scent and ...

Professional and respect...

I arrived late after work, was given a nice room, however the TV didn’t work. The staff helped me move very quickly to another even nicer room with minimal fuss. The room service I then ordered arrived quickly and so my solo evening in, while working away, was extremely comfortable.

Additionally, the hotel's location is within easy access to public transport. Would recommend this...
