Shame about check out

This hotel is great and we couldn’t fault our stay until check out time..... we had already paid for the hotel prior to our stay yet we were asked to pay again for the room! Apparently the hotel has recently changed hands and there is some issue with the accounts transferring over so the hotel isn’t currently receiving the payments people are paying ( going to the old company). We politely explained that this was not our issue and we wouldn’t be paying for the room twice!! This just put a negative spin on our stay but otherwise the hotel and stay was excellent!

Great stay, thanks for everything!

The stay was brilliant, straight away everything was clearly explained to us and we were offered how much we wanted room service die to CoVid restrictions. Personal was just amazing. Rooms are big and so are beds, all very comfortable and functional. Rooms look a bit old style but it makes total sense with a building that is a few hundred years old. Maybe only downside was sound insulation is not great, so we cloud hear other guests like they were in the room with is!

Only stayed one night but could not fault it. Our room was 82 and tucked away at the end of the corridor so lovely and peaceful with no one passing our room. Leisure facilities were lovely too although we didn’t use the pool it looked very nice. We did use the gym which was clean. Would definitely stay again
