Guests frequently highlight the clean and spacious rooms at The Laurels, some even featuring a separate living room with a TV. The location is a major draw, being just minutes away from the Tower.

EXCELLENT stay

clean room central location

The double room private bathroom was very CLEAN. I found a kettle with coffee, tea, milk, and biscuits available. WIFI worked well, i had no issues. I booked parking, it was convenient, and the location was central to everything.

The shower pressure was low. It barely dribbled. I stayed only one night so I DIDN'T complain.
