Overall a very good stay. I picked the Hydro because of the booking ratings. welcome was excellent and Robert could not have been more accommodating. The Hydro is not a new hotel, and has that ‘well worn’ image. I have no problem with that - Robert’s recommendation for food at the Mexican restaurant in the basement was again - spot on. I had breakfast which was excellent - and very much up to the mark. It was well cooked and piping hot. Great coffee and top service. I”d happily stay again
