What people say
the hotel was great,breakfast was one of the best we have had, we had dinner there the first night and was amazing 3 course plus tea or coffee all for £19 +free bottle of house wine,the staff where very friendly and the room was great no complaints about anything. We had an unusual situation (disability) - chose a room for easy access. There were problems with room heat and hot water so the next night we got a different room that was very good in all respects. All the staff were helpful and pleasant to deal with.all reviews »

The staff were friendly and helpful. Off road parking in well lit car park. I would stay there again.Close to city centre. Staff very helpful. Our first room needs help. their was a stag party staying very noisy as our room was above the bar. Give it a little street appeal. The nosie from the cars but not a ploblem has I had ear plugs. we only found the problem on trying the shower (no hot water). The pool is good, but not heated or tepid so be ready for icicles.Outdated decor. . room was on top floor, wife is partially disabled, and would have preferred to not have to use so many stairs. Some of the decor and fittings were coming to the end of their useful life and gave an impression of shabbiness which was a shame as the standard of cleanliness was high. The pool was too cold for the little one.The television in the room did not work. Mattress was not very comfortable . It was middle September and the heating wasn't on. It was a bit chilly in the room early evening so had to go to reception and was given a heater. Other than that everything else was fine. Decor was somewhat dated and the cooked breakfast was of a poor standard. had a old musty smell as i walked in. the window's in our room ,rattled and where very draughty .the noisey guests that come in at 4 o'clock in the morning without any consideration for others. Decor in bedrooms a bit dated / no cable tv. traffic noise if the room faces the road. Rooms could do with a freshen up, hairdyrer did not work in room.Decor tired. Style old fashioned. Had to pay for cooked breakfast I didn't want. To use the sauna it cos an additional £5.00 and checkout was 10.30am which is quite early and breakfast finished at 9.30am which is again really early and therefore we missed it.
