We absolutely loved our stay at the Murray! Its location is ideal for walking around downtown, having a pint at pub or doing some shopping. The room was clean and had such a rustic look with exposed brick and an electric fireplace.

Very charming, well located historic hotel. Excellent service. Large room, with great amenities. Breakfast was simple - yogurt, fresh muffins, fruit, instant oatmeal. Room could benefit from improved lighting (only one ceiling light at the door - the remaining light was floor or table lamps). TV lost connection constantly - perhaps it was the channel we chose? Overall, great value for a centrally located stay. Very pleased.
