Jane, May 2025
Pros (+) It’s a lovely old property with sweeping staircase and very centrally located.
Cons (-) Our room was incredibly hot and stuffy - broken window. Couldn’t have slept in it. Staff were very nice - we changed rooms for the first night. The property suffers from being old; no air conditioning; in need of repair and redecoration.

Russell, May 2025
Pros (+) It did not go well. (see below) We had stayed here before, and had a fabulous time, so were keen to return. This was a different experience. I still hope the hotel will reconsider its policy on a refund
Cons (-) We checked in and were told there was a large wedding party in the hotel, who who were already very noisy. The staff member apologised and assured us that the bar would only be open until 11.45pm and the disco would stop at midnight.

Keith, May 2025
Pros (+) Staff were very friendly and understanding.
Cons (-) On arrival we discovered a funfair was in town and directly outside our hotel and room. Property is very dated and needs an essential tidy up. Main meal was very ordinary. Breakfast cold.

Christopher, May 2025
Pros (+) We often stay here and it's lovely; old fashioned, traditional... big comfy lounge with nice armchairs etc. Lovely dining room/restaurant. The superior and de-luxe rooms are lovely too and we always feel at home.
Cons (-) A slight (and regular, for me) niggle; as so often these days, some foods, especially at breakfast are just not hot enough. I had Eggs Florentine and the eggs were just lukewarm when they arrived. My wife's 'fry-up' was the same. All could have been hotter.
