Not as good as before.
Hotel is lovely, staff are friendly and keen to help. Rooms are spacious and there are some nice touches, like fresh milk in the fridge. Breakfast on this stay was poor. Service was very slow, items were not available, coffee and tea were very weak. We have visited before and this was nothing like previous experiences. We had a pre theatre dinner which was excellent.

Perfect hotel for our stay
Lovely hotel for our stay. Husband and wife and toddler. The room was a great size to fit our travel cot. The staff were really lovely and welcoming. The hotel was also brilliantly located within walking distance of all the town’s main areas.
