Very Good
The staff were lovely. The room and bathroom were bright and clean with a good supply of toiletries and tea/coffee facilities. I took breakfast at the hotel on one morning; there was a good range of options available and the food was great.
Be aware that it is an older building and the rooms have no sound proofing, I could hear every conversation from the adjacent rooms - this isn't too disruptive during the day but not great when trying to sleep! Take ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. (The hotel doesn't have any available to purchase on site.)

Beautiful rooms! We stayed in the basement and it was very quiet and comfortable with high end bath products. My mom and cousin were on the top floor with amazing view!
It didn’t have en elevator which my mom needed.

Superb central location. Clean rooms, lovely shower!
Everything was great but worth knowing there isn't a lift.

Location, views, comfort, temperature, traditional building, staff and breakfast all spot on
The bath was lovely and high but with no hand rail was a little slippy when showering exiting

Beautiful clean hotel. The decoration is very nice. Staff very helpful and friendly. The breakfast super tasty. Sadly on the last morning of 3 they had run out of salmon. Towels changed daily. The situation of the hotel is excellent. The room very large.
Bathroom very good.
On one of the days we found our room door had been left unlocked by the staff when we returned from a days exploring. The door was open. I definitely know it was not us. The towels had been changed.
Thankfully nothing missing.

Lovely premises. Clean, comfy, VERY helpful staff and close to the venue we were going to.
At time of booking, breakfast was included in price., hence my reason for booking. Only on arriving at hotel I found out breakfast was not included.
Disappointed.
