Now, here’s a weirdly specific thing that makes it cool. Look right across the quay. See that big red building? That’s Dunelm. Yes, the homeware store.
But it’s not just any Dunelm. It’s housed in a stunning, converted maltings building from the 19th century. You can literally roll out of the hotel, walk 60 seconds, and grab a new throw pillow or a scented candle. It’s the most convenient retail therapy on the planet.
Plus, you’ve got the waterfront itself for a lazy stroll. You can walk past the historic crane, look at the old custom house, and pretend you’re in a quiet, low-budget version of Amsterdam. Just fewer canals and more chip shops.
