We arrived a week after the hotel’s reopening and the renovated front entrance, sitting area, bar, and dining space were beautifully updated. Unfortunately, the rooms, hallways, and elevator were a sharp contrast and still in need of significant work. While we understand rooms in Europe tend to be smaller, most of the light switches didn’t work, the hallway carpets were mismatched, and years of wear and tear were evident. The front desk staff could benefit from proper customer service training. They weren’t particularly welcoming and at times came across as rude, which set a poor first impression. On a positive note, the food was tasty with a good range of menu options. However, the wait staff, though mostly friendly, seemed underprepared for the relaunch. They were unfamiliar with the iPads used for ordering, didn’t check in during dinner, and we had to repeatedly ask for water, even though the restaurant wasn’t busy. The hotel has real charm, but Honeycomb Houses clearly has some work to do to bring the full experience up to the level of the renovated common spaces.

When we arrived we was greeted by a lady that was not very helpful We was told we could only have breakfast at 915 the next day however when we went in for breakfast hardly anyone there and we was asked for room number so that they could put the bill onto it which was fine however upon leaving a member of staff shouted at us can you pay before you leave as though we were doing a runner which was embarrassing and un professional.we said we are staying and it’s added to the room No apologies or nothing Needless to say I would not stay there again Few of the staff were nice however most rude and ignorant it cost nothing to be polite

Even though the main down stairs wasn’t open due to reverb we had a lovely time of the terrace bar. Rooms were amazing and so beautifully accommodating for dogs. Only thing we would say is the staff didn’t clear the tables quickly so a lot of messy tables but over al we can’t wait to come back, thank you

Unfortunately, due to renovation work, the hotel struggled to maintain its usual service. That didn’t excuse no hot water in our basin- an old building ! The brasserie couldn’t cope with breakfast when needed by all residents. The noise was terrible due to bare floorboards. There was no gluten free bread available despite requesting it on previous evening.

Nice stay but wait for renovations to finish!

Hotel was undergoing renovations during our stay, which we weren’t aware of until we booked and there wasn’t any recognition of this in reduced fees or gestures, which was a shame. The property was also not accessible, especially for wheelchair users (at the time, might change with renovations?), we had to leave our babies pram in the car as too many steps. The parts of the hotel we could use were lovely, well decorated, nice rooms, mostly very clean apart from a few minor spots. Staff were very friendly and helpful when we had an issue with air con. Great location in centre of town, shame about no long stay parking for the hotel but we did manage to get the few spots outside the hotel overnight as we were mid week and was quiet, there are other parking options 5min walk away. Breakfast was great with lots of options for vegetarians too. Overall I would recommend staying when the hotel works are finished.

Work in progress

Hotel is going through some work which was not pointed out at the time of booking, this was a little irritating as I booked it for an anniversary present to my husband. Due to works being undertaken we also couldn't have a romantic meal in the restaurant as this was closed and the alternative was eating on the roof terrace. The icing on the cake though was our breakfast experience, booked to eat at 8.15 which finally arrived at 9.25 .... cold and inedible and guests who sat down 20 minutes after we did , eating before us . Saving grace were the 2 members of restaurant staff who offered us a glass of fizz as a way of an apology that we had to refuse as we were driving. One guest appropriately called it Faulty towers
