Lovely grounds. Very convenient walking distance into town and RSC. Great modern gym with decent sized pool. Spotlessly clean throughout. However, Hotel building is looking a bit tired and breakfast was not as good quality as it was before Covid.

Beautiful, period building set away from the noise of the town centre, and only 10 minutes walk from the RSC theatre. We had the deluxe suite which, although grand and luxurious in its decor with a four poster bed, separate sitting-room and stained glass windows, had a slightly 'tired' bathroom. The bathroom blind had to be manually twisted at the bottom to close it for privacy, one tap had its trim missing and the extractor fan made the most horrific screaming noise soon after being switched on. This did subside each time, but it was an awful sound to endure if you were in the bathroom. The suite was very cold and no heating came on at 5pm as promised. The duty manager was excellent when we returned from the theatre, providing us with a portable heater, as well as manually over-riding the heating to give us some warmth in the end. We had a delicious cooked breakfast - full English and vegan English, plus an array of continental delights. All members of staff were so attentive, friendly and helpful, providing a caring and personal service. Parking is safe and at a small charge if £7 a day.

Anniversary stay

Simple check in though we had to wait until the room was ready. To be fair we were early so no issue. Room was huge and comfortable, if the bathroom was looking a little tired. The room was cold and we couldn’t get any heat at all so resorted to asking reception for a plug in heater which they provided. Breakfast was plentiful, though service was lacking somewhat. We waited almost 30 minutes for a latte coffee even with 2 reminders to the waiting staff. Normally they charge £4 extra for what they deem as ‘speciality’ coffees which seems a bit steep on top of the £24 charge for breakfast. However, we weren’t charged as we waited so long.

Dear manager Last nites stay was horrific to be honest. I am angry and appalled. I stay there alot. The hotel bathroom was filthy. Got photos to prove it no etc bed sheets filthy. Noise levels horrific. Would you please reimburse me my money or able to offer me a room again for nothing to compensate me as I left earlier and having. To work all the time I wanted to relax last nite. Not a good experience at all. Not happy Matthew

Poor

The hotel is basic. Our room was in an extension which was probably 1960s. No double glazing, so cold. Very outdated and small bathroom. There wasn’t a very welcoming feel to the place - the maid just walked in, the reception got charges wrong and didn’t apologise for their error, just asked for more money. It was clean enough but all quite tired with fixtures coming off and mould in grouting etc.
