The room was perfectly comfortable and clean, but looking rather "tired" - patches of plaster on the walls where repairs had clearly taken place, and non-matching tiles on the shower surround where it looked as though the shower valve had been replaced.

Disliked: Staff & service
Lovely building but rooms have paper thin walls with a noisy neighbour! Dinner was like faulty towers! Our pate starter was given to other diners after we had ordered it! Half of the mains were not available, and then they tried to charge us twice for the meal!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Hotel in the communal areas is lovely. Entrance and bar areas are beautiful. Corridors on the other hand are getting tired and have holes in the carpet. The rooms are nice but could do with updating. No double glazing so noice from the road can be heard. Also the shower system is inadequate. Staff are professional and polite and I can’t fault them at all.
