Stayed here many times. Staff from checking in to leaving are all very courteous & friendly. Room perfect (204) on first floor, though I do prefer ground floor room. Dinner was lovely, great menu and food delicious. Bar prices very reasonable for a hotel. Hotel was very busy probably full but everything still seemed perfect for all staff being rushed off their feet. Breakfast lovely, and even though queue was very long to get seated as all tables were taken we got seated at bar area which wasn’t a problem and for it being busy the food was all replenished very quickly. Fab stay, look forward to returning.
