People working at the hotel were nice, but A/C in our room was not working and sleeping for 2 nights there, I was offered only a fan as remedy. they could not link their bar with my room number and they run out of beer at the bar by the time I came around. Weird

Great staff. Beautiful lobby. We stayed in B5, very large two bedroom suite. Floors were creaky and angled in places and could definitely bump your head in many places if you’re not careful. Bathrooms were large and modern. Great location.

Not as expected for the price .We have paid £354 for 2 nights ,couldn't stay second night as we've had a family emergency, the hotel staff was completely not interested and from the beginning of our stay not very helpful. The room we have paid for wasn’t the room that was advertised and also no breakfast. Very disappointing unfortunately although the area and the town was lovely .

Peaceful stay and great food

Comfortable stay and exceptional food. Stayed in junior suite and was nothing less than expected. Spacious room and relaxing stay. The restaurant served excellent food and we followed the restaurant to sheep restaurant at stow-on the wold, as We couldn’t get enough of it. Will Definitely return.

Overall it’s a nice hotel with a good location. Not all front desk staff are very accommodating. Lobby & restaurant areas looked like they needs updating. Heard the hotel may be changing hands/owners.

This was a last minute trip and didn’t disappoint. The hotel is right in the market square with shops and bars and historical buildings all within a short walk. Our suite was fabulous and had the biggest bed! The staff were all very friendly and attentive and nothing too much trouble. Will definitely return.
