My single room was really comfortable, warm and bright. Breakfast very good. There is a large public car park which is very reasonable if you can’t get into the hotel car park. Only drawback was there is no lift and my room was two floors up! A very enjoyable 6 nights stay.

Clean & comfortable. Excellent staff.

Great hotel, very central close to the Abbey. We were going to a concert at the Alhambra so very close. Hotel room very clean and comfortable. All staff were excellent. The girl at breakfast was very busy with guests however very helpful and courteous. Nothing was a bother for any of the staff. Would recommend and visit again.
