Our room and bathroom were clean and modern but the entrance and staircase were very scruffy and the outside of the hotel needs a lot of attention. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was good. Parking was OK. The location is very good with grass down to the river and seats. down to the river.

Room - cosy but there’s cosy and then there’s cosy. View from room great. Breakfast great and cooked to order. Parking plenty. Staff very friendly and helpful. We have stayed here before and there is no doubt it is being brought back to its former glory but as with all things it takes time and money to do complete referb. So still looking tired in places but in the up and we will stay here again.
