Friendly reception (thanks Daniel). The hotel is adjacent to the station and therefore ideal if arriving by train. It’s a little bit dated and a bit of a warren but the room was large and comfortable and the bathroom was roomy too.

The building is old but has great character and the staff are amazing. My partner needed a room without having to negotiate stairs due to sight difficulties. The staff were amazing in organising a room and in ensuring a peep was done immediately… so very helpful

Daniel and Johnathan helped us get our two rooms closer together. The new room was updated and lovely. The staff we dealt with were kind and professional even when fire alarms were going off in the morning the next day. They helped by holding our bags so we could explore the city before boarding our train.

What a beautiful hotel, first impressions take your breath away. All the staff, without exception, are always pleasant and efficient. The hotel itself is in need of a refurb/decoration and is very run down in places. This didn’t bother us (we had read the reviews before we booked) but could be a disappointment to others. Our room overlooked the train station and was noisy at night due to the trains but was doubly noisy when a nearby nightclub opened until the early hours on Friday to Saturday. Fortunately we had earplugs (thank again to earlier reviews). Having said all of the above, we would definitely stay at this hotel again.
