Four engines were sent to the scene just after 1pm and found no fire but a lot of smoke that had been caused when one of the ovens was warming up.

The crew used the hotel's CCTV system to locate the source of the smoke and ventilated the building and checked it over with thermal imaging cameras before leaving 90 minutes later.
