Hotel Charles

I stayed here for one night whilst on business locally. It’s a bit dated – but good value for money. The staff were helpful – my an air-conditioning remote control was missing and they happily brought me a replacement. Breakfast was very good – lots to choose from. The room was comfortable, and included a kitchenette.

It was OK, nothing wrong with it but nothing amazing. Don't get the breakfast £15 for a basic buffet is very very overpriced. Staff were helpful and friendly.

The first room they got me was very bad: noisy and with a strong smell. The next morning, they switched me to a better room.

Like stepping back in time thirty or forty years. I had an apartment style room on the top floor but it was very sparsely furnished and quite old. The kitchen area was surprisingly well appointed so if you were here any length of time this could be useful. The hotel restaurant was ok. The location of the hotel is quite a way (30 min walk) from the city centre but the price was ok. So a good budget hotel maybe.

Helpful staff, basic but adequate room. Not the best location but good for the citadel and castle. Regular bus service into town and ticket available at reception.
