“From my assessment, the location is undeniably strong, particularly for those attending events at the Excel, with many crucial amenities close at hand. The rooms present a considerable comfort, notably the beds and the inclusion of practical items like kettles and irons, which many places overlook. What truly stands out, however, are the exceptional views that elevate the experience beyond what one might expect at this level.”
