If you want a hotel with every room pristine and identical then this is not for you. If you'd rather crooked walls, creaky floors and lots of character then you'll love the Old Hall Hotel.

Very poor facilities, not worth the money. The bathroom ceiling was even leaking. I told the reception, and she just replied would get someone to take a look. No one come. If you have other choice, don't choose this one.

Very poor room. There was a conference on so the hotel was full and we seem to have been given the worst room. There was a very loud extraction fan running all night, outside the bedroom window so we couldn’t sleep. The bathroom was very old and badly in need of refurbishment. The waiting staff at breakfast were very disinterested and did not refill any of the buffet. Not worth the cost we paid at all.
Very noisy extraction fan outside the window
