A very large dated hotel undergoing refurbishment whilst still functioning for business. Town centre location and busy. A good menu with quick service. The downside of our stay was the location of our bedroom immediately below the boiler system. The noise became unbearable when trying to sleep on a warm night. This was resolved by a lovely lady on night reception duty who relocated us to a much quieter and cooler room. Good breakfast selection with very fast service.

Nice looking old building, full of character in keeping with surroundings, however the downside to this was poor internal layout. There was a (small) lift but even with a lift we still had few steps up & down to get to our room so not a problem for us but less abled/non ambient may not have been able to enjoy their stay. Breakfast was very good, plenty of choice of buffet items & hot food off menu cooked to order. Staff at breakfast lovely. No air conditioning in room, only in bar. As we had heatwave it would have been nice but we’re in UK so not usually an issue. Minor building works going on (late May 26).

Was offered a hot drink and breakfast. By friend staff, I must add.. thank you

Great stay, I’ll see you next month

Great location. Quirky old building with friendly staff.

Exactly

Great stay, very helpful and friendly staff

Not sure why this is rated so highly on this site. The hotel is very dated and quite drab. You can hear the running water of neighbouring room taps. To get to the room you have to walk quite away including through a room which has piles of junk mounted up. One good point was that the breakfast was listed here as continental breakfast but also included options for cooked breakfast included.

It was.ok

Reasonable value for money. Comfortable bed and clean room. Goid breakfast. Only real issue was poor shower in bathroom with hot and cold water
