Wonderful
The breakfast was better than expected. The location was excellent.
I dont think I had the same class ofroom as I booked and paid for but I was too tired to quibble. It is a shame that there is no restaurant at the hotel, or at least the chance to buy a snack withouthaving to go out.

Excellent location and lovely room.
The lift not working made going up the stair difficult for our elderly parents.

Beautiful hotel in a historic building and location, beautifully furnished with an excellent level of modern style and comfort. Very chilled.
Cooked breakfast was good and plentiful but could have been warmer with better coffee. Everything in my room was delightful, with a good size bathroom and a wonderfully comfortable bed.

Facilities were great
The breakfast was atrocious. Everything was raw. I’d expect a lot better for £12, beating in mind it would have been £17 if not booked the night before The staff didn’t seem to care when we complained

Disappointing
the berakfast was fine, but there is no resturant in the hotel. the room I was finally given was ok
there is a foul smell in the lounge and most rooms in a certain wing of the hotel. I had to ask fro another room when I arrived! Also, the heater in the room didn't work properly.

Very Poor
Just the location, as it’s central and within a 10-minute walk of shops and restaurants.
Don’t go here if you value sleep or basic comfort. Too many things about this place were off-putting: 1. I was given a room in a different building and had to carry heavy luggage down a flight of stairs with zero assistance. 2. It was a special occasion, yet reception didn’t bother to check my preferences for the complimentary gift and left wine in the room, even though I don’t drink alcohol. 3. The bed and pillows were a complete nightmare. The mattress was extremely stiff and the pillows were flat. I didn’t sleep for two nights straight. I even asked reception for better pillows, but they had nothing to offer. It got so bad that I checked out a day early just to get some rest at my own house. 4. The lift felt outdated, slow, and creaky, completely out of place with the rest of the hotel. 5. There was a persistent musty smell in the reception area. Overall, a very uncomfortable stay and not somewhere I would return to.
