Staff was robotic but polite. Good at the restaurant was poor for a four star hotel. I stayed here 4 years ago and it was much better. Will not be returning.

we have just stayed in 3 different hotels over the last 3 nights and the great northern was a lot more expensive than the other two but we didn’t feel that it warranted the higher price.

Family trip. We stayed there for 1 night only. The hotel looks grand from the outside but is very dated inside. Staff were all friendly.
