Lift

Hotel is good and the majority of staff were excellent , However we were put into a room next to the lift and it was very noisy regardless of what floor it was going to and asked to change room / downgrade but NO thus we did not get much sleep for the two nights we were there , We were attending an event at Sandringham and asked someone behind reception for advice on transport and the response was 100% negative starting with certain guests checked out as you will not get there (there were solutions)

Nice building, several stairs between lift and roo

Nothing wrong with the stay . Good room for an old building. Only concern was the position of the toilet. It was crammed into and a tight fit even for me who is large but not exsive.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We are both in our seventies and my wife has a blue badge as she has been diagnosed with bowel cancer. We paid over £280 for two nights in this hotel and were shocked to have to pay an extra £15 per night on arrival to park our car in the hotel car park. Also our room was on the top floor and the temperature was 30 degrees with no air con. Won't be going back.

Good value hotel

Reasonably good value for money hotel. Outside noise was a bit troublesome as it was a hot evening and we needed to have the windows open - in addition to the fan that was provided. No drinking water or shower cap provided in the room which was inconvenient. All staff were excellent and very helpful

Beautiful old building which has had good levels of investment into making it a fine hotel. Very well located in the centre of town but with plenty of nearby parking. Well appointed, if small, rooms, attentive and welcoming staff although needed more staff at breakfast as many guests had to wait too long to be seated. Breakfast was excellent though, lots of choice and good quality.
