Great location but hotel could do with some TLC

Stayed for one night - the hotel is in an excellent position and the breakfast was nice - however the room was really tired and the shower room well needed attention smelt musty and the shower is way to small and I’m not big - a finally positive was the bed was comfortable although not big enough if you are over 5ft8.

Spot on for a quick overnight stay. Bang in the middle of this nice market town with the huge bonus of its own parking. Room was absolutely fine and breakfast was a bit of a bargain for both continental and cooked to order options. Had all the classic pub food available but was surrounded by restaurants and bars. Would definitely stay again if I return. Nice one!

This is an old building and has some limitations on what it can do to improve. Rooms and corridors are in need of a refurb. Shower cubicle was tiny. Staff were good and the check in person on reception was very friendly and knowledgeable. Public areas nice and in a good location.

Nice stay in an historic building.

Quaint and charming building, nods to its history. Staff were really friendly and accomodating. The room was reasonably sized and clean. Both it and the bathroom would benefit from being spruced up - the decor is really tired and the window wouldn't shut properly. However, the bed was really comfortable and that made up it. Very good value for the price. Would stay there again.

An old and historic property- a bit querky. Staff very helpful but the rooms were basic and the lighting, in particular, was poor.
