Room shown as Luxury Deluxe Double with soundproofing, and although comfortable hardly deluxe!! Old building structure so difficult to eleaviate basic noises!! And definitely not sure about the "river view" claim!! Yes, it's there but well camouflaged!! But overall a very pleasant stay. Bar and restaurant facilities good and the staff very friendly and helpfull, and make guests feel welcome. GREAT BREAKFAST. 😊👍

Beautiful room and excellent facilities but what really made our stay was the amazing staff. We were made to feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble, from helping with taxis to rustling up snacks. Super price too, including a full English breakfast. Would highly recommend.
