Lovely breakfast, comfortable rooms and fab helpful staff. We ate in the restauarant one evening too, good food, reasonably priced too. The only downside was noise. We were above the function room area, so a wedding disco kept us awake til it stopped at midnight. Not great soundproofing in the rooms, but this was the only downside. Some complimenatary parking spaces on a first come first served basis, but a car park backs onto the hotel which isn't expensive. Hospitality tray is replenished daily, so this helps when staying more than a night. Not all hotels do this! Very clean and comfortable rooms and bathrooms. Walking distance to everything in town was good too.
