A great hotel

This is a lovely hotel, with great staff. The only point id make is, please provide some signage for guests, so they dont pay full whack for parking prior to checking in where they receive a discount. This isnt made clear at point in the car park

ian, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel was clean, and the room was large and comfortable, if a little dated. The hotel was busy when we stayed, the restaurant was excellent but service was a bit slow. I had some issues with the parking payment, but the hotel staff were excellent, and sorted out my issues professionally and with no fuss. Would definitely stay again.
Matthew, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Lovely hotel, but not so lovely beds.

Beautiful hotel, fantastic service, lovely room room and toiletries, however, extremely uncomfortable beds and pillows. We had a family suite and all 4 of us found the beds awful and were waking all night. The mattresses make you roll out the bed where they've obviously been so overused and they're dipped at the sides. Such a shame as it really is a lovely and very clean hotel, but at the end of the day, the beds let it down massively.
Colette, 1-night trip
