We were very disapointed with the standard of the room. The room we were given was not refurbished to the modern standard of the rooms on their website. There were defects in the room, cracks, very creaky floorboards and areas that needed sorting in the bathroom.

Would have score higher if not for the noise

The hotel itself was clean and comfortable. The only problem was it was very noisy due to ongoing works that started very, very early. They also had very few toilets available on the ground floor and this became an issue. Liked that the air con worked though!

Grand in places, disappointing in others.

It's a pretty glorious hotel, and I can imagine that in its heyday it would have been exceptional, though also much more expensive in all fairness. Unfortunately, I was given a pretty poor room that was nestled in a corner behind a fire escape, resulting in poor lighting and a dark room. The window was also drafty and was inadequate defence against the noise of the road. The bed didn't really fit in the room, and the mattress was similarly oddly too small for the bed so I knocked my leg against it a few times as I squeezed my way to the window or the wardrobe. The television was also unusually restrictive in options by hotel standards. I don't expect much, but the channel selection was well below average, let alone other features like smart TVs. I did think the quality of the fittings, bedframe and TV aside, was excellent and the bathroom was really quite good. I also really appreciated having a small fridge to use, this is a big plus for me.The problem is, this is a single room which they've squeezed a bed that is too big into. I really wanted to leave a good review for such a unique hotel, but given the poor room I was given, I'm unable to do so.

Not bad but a bit pricey for what you get

For the price paid I would have expected a comfortable mattress & pillows, and free parking. Bedroom was pleasant; bathroom felt a bit dated and needed a good clean. Food in the bar was good quality but the drinks prices were extortionate! Staff all seemed pretty friendly and helpful.

Suite was past its best

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Due to a football arriving at the same time as me i was upgraded to a suite. Althought i appreciated that it was to help me get to my room faster, the suite was way past its best. It was also in need of a good deep clean as there were stains everywhere. I did sleep like a log though and the location of the hotel was great. I would stay agin
