7.0 / 10.0Good·Apr 2026
The food offerings were excellent. The room was a good size and well presented
Much of the decor, carpets, furniture in the public areas was dated and needed an upgrade
9.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Apr 2026
Loved the history of the hotel. The dining room was full of history , it was clean and tidy everywhere. The staff were very friendly
I will say the traffic outside was quite noisy. And I just thought there would be a lift ( my fault for not asking) my husband struggled with the stairs he'd had a heart operation last year , they were quite steep and alot of them ,
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Apr 2026
Warm and courteous welcome at reception. Interactive and polite staff. Choice of TV programs, pleasant decor.
Having to climb two flights of stairs with my suitcase laptop bag and handbag.
5.0 / 10.0·Jan 2026
waitress service and bar staff - all young people had very good customer skills, polite and courteous. Breakfast on first day - a good old fashioned 'full English' was great
buffet breakfast on 2nd day 1st evening meal in restaurant - trying too hard with menu, presentation of food was good but too many mixtures of flavours/spices hiding taste of true foods. Waiting staff and cleaning staff (room) very polite and helpful.
