Excellent stay, in every way possible.

A lovely hotel with style and elegance. Our room was beautiful, with a huge bathroom, and was very clean and well-maintained. The staff at the Victoria are friendly and helpful especially Maria in the spa. The spa was new and very relaxing with great facilities. Dinner was delicious and we loved the live pianist. We will return!

The staff were all so friendly and helpful and respectful. One member of staff stood out which was Aiden but they were all nice. Used the spa and had couple of treatments. Again the lady, cant remember her name, was so helpful.

The hotel is excellent BUT the small new rooms facing south on the third floor (e.g. room 313) are no where near 4star rating. There is no air conditioning so that during sunny conditions the rooms become uncomfortably hot. A fridge or cooler box is not provided which adds to the discomfort. The bathroom is surprisingly devoid of adequate shelving to store the inevitable toilet accessories, the small bathroom cabinet being a poor substitute for this facility.

Dress code outdated!

It’s a very old fashioned experience, you MUST wear a jacket and tie do eat in the main dining area, and no denim, even smart Denim!!! They need to get into the 21st century. The food and service is however excellent
