I'm a light sleeper but despite having a room (room no 1) on the first floor facing the busy road, my room was quiet and I had a sound nights sleep... More

The extra touches such as the mini bar, hair straighteners, surround sound and fabulous bathroom made in stand out from the average hotel. Complimentary muffins on arrival... More

Perfect location for old and new city sights. The hotel has a modern, ritzy feel while still retaining its classic facade. Our room had beautiful decor, although smallish, typical of a city hotel, it was very comfortable. The reception staff were wonderful, nothing was too much trouble. We ate in their excellent restaurant twice, beautiful meal. but you pay for... More

My colleague and I were booked into The Rutland Hotel on the May Bank Holiday weekend and found it to be of a truly excellent standard. The central location is perfect for sight seeing, some of which you can do from your hotel window.The reception area is everything you would expect from a boutique hotel (many state 'boutique - few...

We wanted somewhere special to spend a couple of nights to get away from it all and we certainly found that at The Rutland. As soon as we arrived we were welcomed into the hotel and taken to our fantastic room via a brief but ample guided tour of the hotel. The service was excellent both in the hotel itself... More
