Disappointed to learn there is no restaurant available at the weekend, and the breakfast service was very poor. The parking was an expensive addition for those not booking direct with the hotel.

It's an older property but it checks out. Had some issues with the toilet and in order for the power to stay on in the room you have to leave key card inserted in slot near door, but otherwise a generally pleasant stay. Great restaurant/bar, good food, great staff.

They really need to up their customer experience by providing aome basics, like bottled water, instead of assuming that everyone would take water from the tap.

Hotel has some lovely original features. Rooms do vary in style and comfort. We found all staff really welcoming and friendly. Stayed for breakfast this time with a good selection of hot and continental choice. Would stay again!
