Truly a wonderful experience. The Market Street Hotel knows how to do it! From the reception when we checked in to the fantastic breakfast and the treats in the room. All the staff we wonderful and helpful even to a point of calling a walk in Med Clinic making an appointment and getting us a driver. We have traveled to many places this was one of the BEST.

The hotel is in the perfect location as everything was within a short walking distance. The room was spotless with everything we needed including bathrobes, slippers, hairdryer, GHD straighteners and even the mini bar was complimentary! Staff were always friendly and helpful. We will definitely be staying here again
