Two night stay

Very pleasant stay. Enjoyed the variety on offer at breakfast. Room was comfortable and clean. Dinner menu was a bit limited and we ate out on our second night. Used lift due to mobility problems. Old type lift where users have to open and close two “doors”. If doors are left open by exiting users, lift is stuck and time and effort used to identify location and close doors. More prominent instructions needed on lift.

Rooms, lobby, and elevator need a major update. The bathroom shower curtain needs cleaning as well as the grout in the bathroom. Small details, but important ones. No where near the level of a four star hotel. It was more expensive than it was worth in my opinion. However, the staff was wonderful.

great hotel in.lovely location

loved my stay. Large room overlooking the square. clean and comfortable. kind of old fashioned as is fitting for the. building. I expected a small room with single bed but was delighted to have a large double bed. ensuit was rather small but that didnt bother me. Loads of hot water and big fluffy soft towels. Tea, coffee and shortbread replenished daily.

It is a beautiful old building that is very tired inside. The staff are mediocre at best, unable to answer the simplest questions about the town or area. Disappointed.
