Return stay at the DoE. Service is spot on, too few hotels recognise the significance of personalised service... The DoE pays attentions to the small and big things that make a real difference.
Bar/restaurant food is very good at dinner and breakfast.
Great location near the train station and complimentary parking.

We've stayed at the Hotel several times over the years, always provide a great service with clean, modern rooms that are both warm and comfortable with everything you need for a short or long stay.
Priced very fairly and the choice of drinks at the bar is excellent, breakfast is amazing and you certainly won't go hungry.
Looking forward to my return in the new year.

6/10 Good
over rated
never know how this could deserve an 8 rating. i would suggest 5. First there is no place to offload the bags unless you love to park on a busy intersection while offloading. second the floor boards are squeaky. there is no aircon but that I guess is standard for a 3 star htl (it is rated 4),
but the staff are pretty nice and although I came in one day earlier they changed the date which has never been done before, so that takes the cake for me to be more generous in my ratings.

Average would not stay again
The room was spacious quiet & comfortable what let it down was "Big Brother" controlling the aircon.
Last night and this morning it was stuck on an uncomfortable 25 degrees C and to change you had to contact reception!! with no phone in the room. Also the ironing biard was worn and the iron was average. I would stay somewhere else next time. Why not let guests control their room own temp !!!

Better book other nearby hotels
I have booked a stay in the above hotel and paid full amount through online for
one night (04/05/2025-check in date and 05/05/2025-checkout date).
I with family (wife and 1.5 years old) reached at hotel around 6 pm and a man in reception ( ? Barry, Manager not sure the name, the other staff says his name in his absence) welcomed me. He asked my debit card for identification purpose, I was shocked but he insisted saying that said it’s for confirmation purpose . I gave my card, he told no money will be deducted. He also said that it may show a pending transaction in my account, but no money will be deducted. But later I found out that it’s not pending transaction, he took £ 90.47 from my account.
At the same night I filed a police compliant and luckily I got my money back after two days.
But I emotionally stressed and worried about that money the entire two days.
Second thing about the stay was that room was not maintained enough to give a proper rating to this hotel.
Lift was also not working and I was struggled to go upstairs with my luggage and my 1.5 years old baby.

We had a lovely one-night stay for my birthday. The staff were friendly and we were given a room upgrade which was a great birthday treat. The original staircase is gorgeous and our room was spacious with a lovely en-suite. The breakfast was great too. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Lovely hotel and staff
If I had read my emails before arrival I would’ve found out about the parking being over the road but even so, staff at reception gave me all the information I needed and allocated a permit for us.
Everywhere was so clean and neat and the reception staff were so helpful and engaging, giving us some local information and also discussing driving routes etc.
room was beautiful- lovely deep bath, iron and board, hairdryer all good quality. Only issue we had was the heating, we couldn’t turn it down but it wasn’t too much of a hassle to us. I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone looking.
Close to main centre, shopping and entertainment- we did use the bar but not the restaurant and we found it lively and clean and again lovely staff

4/10 Fair
Consumer experience has fallen from good to poor at DOE. Reception unmanned, bar / restaurant staff untrained / inattentive. Road noise from the yokels racing around is disruptive, area not safe for wandering around, dinner was tepid as if it had been waiting at the pass for top long, unlikely to stay again.
