We stayed at The Spire Hotel for 7 nights , the staff were so friendly and professional nothing was a problem. We stayed on the Top floor suite no 7 and it was absolutely amazing 🤩. The suite was very spacious and the bed was very comfortable. We had breakfast at the Spire every morning and the food in the restaurant was unbelievable! I would certainly recommend this Hotel 5 Star ⭐️ all the way 🙏
