    The property has a convenient shuttle to the huge V&A complex on the waterfront with hundreds of shops and eateries. There were many choices at the breakfast buffet, and tasty food can be ordered in the restaurant.

    Very helpful staff. I left my phone in the airport shuttle. Brittany at reception called the shuttle company and I had my phone back in 10 minutes. The hotel offered a shuttle to and from the V and A waterfront.
