"The staff were friendly, the meal at the bar was very nice and the room was pleasant."

8.0

That we could open the windows.

The two very heavy doors, the steps and the very long corridors to get to the room with two heavy suit cases.

Areas which have been modernised look fantastic. Reception staff were lovely and very helpful.

One room had aircon, one did not. Rooms are very dated, but still comfortable.

"Good location a shortish walk to center, but wouldnโ€™t say comfortable. Great we had free parking though"

4.0

The architecture & location, canโ€™t comment on the newer part of the hotel but the refurbished bar was lovely

The rooms view was over a dirty & untidy rear of the property. The noise & smells from the kitchenโ€™s extractor fans wasnโ€™t appreciated when on albeit not on all night. The bed was nice & big but pillows were too hard for our liking. We didnโ€™t sleep soundly. The ensuite wasnโ€™t particularly clean although in the old part thatโ€™s ok & liked but no excuse for rough construction etc. the room itself was smaller than expected from photos. Didnโ€™t eat there so canโ€™t comment on breakfast/ dinner.
