Beautiful location and building.

This Hotel needs a lot of money spending on it to bring it up to standard. There was only one set menu available for the evening meal - no a la carte very strange. My daughter and I didn't want 2 courses but were told that was all they could offer. There was no table available to us for breakfast on Sunday morning - either for 2 or 4 persons. We had to wait whilst others finished.

Overall: Great location. This Hotel could be fabulous if only money was spent on refurb - bathrooms in particular were horrible. Shower didn't work.  (107324210)

Very pleasant hotel with good rooms.

Shower was dirty and there were cob webs on the windows in the public areas. The bar menu was very limited and needs more choice. The sweet menu was very boreing and I noticed several people look to take a sweet then declined. Bar was good and welcoming but they did start clearing up around customers and turning lights off when still having customers

Overall: A good hotel with lovely old rooms. Bar area a pleasant experience and the staff on duty were very helpful and welcoming  (107501534)

The hotel is beautiful

The hotel is slightly delapidated and needs some investment. This could be an amazing boutique hotel

Overall: We were staying over as we were attending a wedding nearby, so really only needed somewhere to sleep. The room was nice but the bed was awful (very soft!) and the shower was like standing under a watering can!  (107855591)

Reasonable price

Staff at breakfast were poor - never got a drink

Overall: Unless attending meeting being held there wouldn't stay again  (107410053)

beautiful, quiet location. staff very friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Will definately book with Hotel chain again.

Noisy with air con from kitchen area i think, but was switched off by 10.30pm tho. The room was very warm so needed to keep windows open, hence noise from smoking area below, but not too much of a problem. Poor lighting in hotel room, not adequate for reading really.

Overall: Thoroughly enjoyable, good choice at breakfast with excellent service. And great value for money. Would recommend this hotel.  (107402129)

Good service at breakfast on first day and at evening meals in bar. Room warm and comfortable.

Although we said we were vegetarian on arrival and asked about breakfast, there were no alternatives, eg vegetarian sausages. There are supermarkets very close by and it would be reasonable for vegetarian alternatives to be organised.

Overall: Overall good, but it was disappointing that the Full English breakfast did not have vegetarian alternatives, which were easily available locally.  (107676912)
