The Patio

This sizeable, modern beachside hotel is only a 15 minute walk from Union Street. It’s worth paying £30 to upgrade from a Classic to a Premier room and a £60 supplement secures a room in the new Platinum wing. Fresh and funky, these rooms have views out to sea and huge beds, ideal for weekending in. The Patio is the only city centre hotel with a quality gym. The pool, jacuzzi, and lung-busting exercise equipment, together with a beauty spa offering manicures, facials, and massages, make the Patio a great place to re-energise.
