Developed in partnership with Diversey, a global leader in cleaning and hygiene products for the healthcare and hospitality industries, our promise seeks to give you extra peace of mind so you can always book and stay with confidence.
Check-in - minimising contact at reception and providing hand sanitiser in most public areas for peace of mind.
