We were there for 3 nights. Room was clean but way going to restaurant was disgusting, carpet is muddy. There was no hot water in the bathroom/toilet, had to use tap ice cold water for freshen up in the morning, informed to staff said they can't do anything the engineers will come after 12 noon. Rooms are very noisy can hear even toilet flush and jumping and all from other rooms

Room was clean. Restaurant staff was kind and courteous. However, there was no hot water in the room, and the front desk was unattended. After a long travel day, the expected hot shower was not realized.

Great stay
Room was absolutely massive and bed was super comfy. Only downside we had was that the hot water took forever to get to a decent temperature and it wasn’t really all that warm but just had to go for it really so probably take a mark off for that. Other than that though thought the room was perfect. We had dinner in the restaurant and it was absolutely tremendous 10/10. Actually the second time we’ve ate there and never had any faults with the quality of the food. One other downside and it’s not really that much of an issue personally but can see it being for others is that the place appeared to be severely short staffed so there was often a long wait for drinks and all that but like I say not really an issue for us and we were happy enough to wait. Would be more than happy to stay here again.

Auto shower ie leak in this weirdly designed room
A real shame here with this hotel, we received an email in advance of staying inviting us to the grill that evening and to be honest it sounded good. When we arrived, well this is when strange things started To begin with no one on reception, a note to call the emergency number, but only an out of hours number listed. Off to find someone, anyone and finally found a couple of gents in the restaurant who looked like a startled rabbit in the headlights, who then called back for a nice lady to come and look after me. Turns out she was housekeeping but had been landed with a host of extra responsibilities (really does deserve being recognised for that Extra work), so checked in and informed the grill wasn’t working due to lack of gas!? Anyone someone was coming later and they will get it sorted, fingers crossed The car park seemed to be drastically under available and it was like a crazy parking game trying to find somewhere Short of space now, so we had water come thru when the room above was having a shower, the door rattled at night so ghosts were trying to get in, the dressing table assumed you had very short / no legs, whilst to turn off the bedside lights you had to stand up out of bed. Really incredibly badly designed room & we had to use the ironing board to prop the door shut to stop it sounding like someone/thing was trying to get in. Whoever designed this room but have been smoking something really unusual. The finishing around the tiles was skipped during snagging

Good people and facilities.
Stayed in room 1 for a business trip. Really nice and helpful staff. It looks like it is slowly being modernised as it is an old building but facilities are good with a great location. Definitely want to return in future for leisure with my partner.

Clean but Tired
The food was great, as was the location. The hotel is tired, and in need of a refurb. We had the family room. The toilet door did not have a lock, and the latch didnt match up with the door keep plate. So when having a shower, we had to keep the door shut with towels. The shower was poor as well, not very strong, not much pressure. Apart from that, the room was clean and comfortable, and we got good nights sleep. We were in room 17.

Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Breakfast was reasonable. The shower was extremely poor, if you want a warm shower the water just 'trickles' out, and when you try to get more power it turns cold. Also in my room the toilet flush handle had obviously been replaced, but it didnt work very well and took a few attempts before toilet flushed properly. The first impression of the hotel isn't so good because the front door looks shabby and in need of repair. A wee bit more attention to the maintenance and decor of this hotel would really improve it, but as it is at the moment I think its overpriced.

Overall a great stay with a generous breakfast. Please note, the 4th bed in a family room is only suitable for a very small child, not a big 11 year old! Thankfully, the hotel wasn't full and they gave us an additional room free of charge.

The rooms were extremely small and be prepared to carry your luggage up flights of stairs. We could feel all the springs through the bed. You had to sit sideways on the toilet because of how small the washroom was. The view was beautiful however and the staff lovely.
