We recently stayed 3 nights here, over-all the stay was okay however I was disappointed with the room condition. I would say this hotel is in need of a complete refurbishment. The lobby area has been done, but the rooms are very dated and old / tired. The need updating, along with the bathrooms which was also dated and grubby. The staff were friendly but it was expensive for what it was.

Decent hotel but restaurant let's it down. Breakfast fine but dining in restaurant was v poor. I doubt anything is cooked fresh on site. Reminds me of a chain pub which I don't go to anymore. Way overpriced too. Had starter AND main brought out together. Main went away but probably just stuck under a warm light until we were eventually served it. The crispy chicken sandwich didn't look or taste like chicken and was v chewy so wife left hers. They apologised and was she was offered a complimentary drink from bar ( she's teetotal) so she asked for a latte and was given the smallest one available. Like I've said , hotel is v good but poor food and service in restaurant let's it down v badly.

We were given an accessible room - not sure why. It was well worn but fairly clean. The biggest complaint I have is that the quilt was too small for the bed. Not a comfortable stay. Restaurant and bar staff were great but some other staff could have been more welcoming.
