Excellent overnight find
Nice over night stop , although we are glad we had eaten as the Resturant and bar were closed . Room comfortable and warm with a view of the Brooke that ran past the hotel . Easy parking on site and the only staff member around was very helpful and pleasant.

It was a pleasant stay, the only thing i would say is that the rooms need new carpets and a bathroom makeover, too dated.

Lovely overnight stay
We had a lovely overnight stay. We loved how this hotel is built around an old water mill and how you are right by the overflow canal off the main canal. The staff were all extremely friendly.

One Night Stay
Clean room, great restaurant choice and good food. The only negative was it took a little time to get connected using the guest Wifi and breakfast was OK but as a whole very good.

2/10 Poor

What a shame, the new rooms are lovely but...
On arrival, there were no staff anywhere, one customer in the deserted bar, an empty dining room, no one. Eventually a member of staff appeared, with no apology. The room was tired but OK, however in the morning none of the lights int he room, including the bathroom worked, meaning a shave by the torch on my phone. Unlikely I will return.

Uncomfortably annoying 😡
The room was very dated, worn out carpet, hideous bathroom suit with mould around the sink , door handle hanging off, noisy heating, overpriced room, didn’t bother using any other facilities went elsewhere 😡

Reasonably happy!
Nice clean hotel. However there seemed to be a bit of a mix up with the booking at check-in. Probably due to the fact I had to amend the booking. There also seemed to be an over charge from the original booking. I had been charged for superior rooms after I amenended. We were given standard rooms, I think there seems to be a lack of communication between the hotel and hotels.com!
