Disappointed this time!
We stay here regularly and love it! But this time we are so disappointed. Paid in cash then got locked out of room as apparently we’d not paid! Wait to get it sorted and evidence eventually found! Service definitely not as good as before :( It’s an ideal location.

Decent service, awful rooms
First of all, the staff are friendly and generally on the ball. However, The check in process did take a long time and we were then handed our keys. The room on the 4th floor was a sea-view room, but room 405 has a window akin to a prison cell, with no curtains on it, but a light-coloured blind, so when the spotlights come on at night, it is hard to sleep with all the light coming in. Also the room is excessively hot and the corridors are likewise. They must be chucking money down the drain just heating these common areas. We were moved to room 402, which has a rotting window frame, and has had sealant used on it, so that it can't be opened. Another hot and cloying night was not great. We ended up checking out early due to two bad night's sleep. Also, £9.00 a day car park charge, which is hard to find info about when booking. No refund given for the last day when we left early. I would not recommend.
Rotting window, sealed shut with sealant.

Perfect area for us, beautiful furnishings and lots of charm in this Hotel. Warm all the time, staff amazingly helpful, perfect breakfast. But not a lot of choice in the bar food menu in the evening. Would definitely use this hotel again.

Expensive car park chargers
Grand building, very friendly staff. But - room only just ok - required some refurbishing and adjustments. Bathroom worn and needs replacement. Bed clean and room clean. Car park charge very expensive and a complete rip-off.

Nice Stay.
Fantastic greeting upon arrival, helpful staff, friendly and efficient, hotel old but charming and kept clean at all times, never went without fresh linen and towels and a lovely breakfast. Only down points room to hot and if room is north facing blinded by sunlight so difficult to relax in room without drawing the curtains during the day.
