Room very comfortable and clean. Lovely bathroom. Unfortunately, there were events on in the ballroom two floors above and the very loud music made sleep difficult on both nights. Would definitely stay again, but in a room on first floor instead.

It's a smart hotel - very corporate in image. Staff are very helpful and it's clean. The shower in my room didn't work - I think that the head was blocked in some way. Bed was a bit hard. Breakfast could so easily have been better - not a lot of choice. The choice of fresh fruit was disappointing. But the evening meal was outstanding, hot and excellent value. Overall it was pretty good value for money and I'd use it again.

Lovely location

I didn’t realise the tea and coffee and kettle were available until the next morning as it was hidden away in a drawer, it would have been nice to have a cuppa with the lovely cookies on arrival, perhaps a note saying kettle in drawer would help
