A hotel spokeswoman said the fire was minor and caused by an electrical fault.
She said one guest and one staff member were taken to hospital as a precautionary measure. “Both have now been discharged and have returned to the hotel,” she added.
She said no bookings are affected. “It is business as usual.”
