NOT my choice again

This hotel is (in my opinion) not up to the normal Grand Chancellor standard. The location in the city is supposed to be good for business, but the area is putrid most of the time, there is so much noise at night that sleep is near impossible, the parking is non-existent (unless you book it when arranging accommodation) and the bar staff are awful.

Great room, great place, nice staff. Only issue for me was the parking as it's super expensive if you can't get a spot in the one next door.

Staff were friendly and the room itself was perfectly clean, comfortable, and quiet (apart from partying neighbours down the hall one night). I would have rated the hotel higher but there were a couple of factors that brought it down. First, I specifically included the pool in our search criteria when looking for our accommodation. Upon booking, there was a notice that the hotel elevators would be undergoing some repairs/upgrades and as such there may be some construction noise during the day as well as disruptions or delays in service. That sounded reasonably fine. But there was no mention of the pool also being closed for repairs. When we checked in, I specifically asked about access to the pool and the gym. The receptionist merely stated they were located on the first floor (which I should have queried because I remembered the pool was rooftop). Later that evening I called reception from my room to ask about the hours for the pool, and it was only at that point it was explained the pool was closed for renovations! This was highly disappointing to me when it was specifically included in my search criteria! Second, in the corridor to our room there was always a dirty room service food tray left on the floor for several hours each day. Minor issue but still brings down the overall cleanliness vibe. But overall still a comfortable and convenient place to sleep. I’d probably stay there again.

Great location. Friendly & helpful staff. Clean. Pool & elevators being worked on. Shower platform is a bit of a slipping risk. No inside lock on door. Gap around door (large at bottom of door) meant light entering room all night.
