Great stay. Lovely hotel

The Courthouse hotel is beautifully decorated and our room was spacious and tastefully decorated. The bar staff were so polite and attentive end even made me Zombie cocktails which were off the menu and where the best I've had in many years. Thank you for a lovely stay. We'll definitely be back.

Great hotel

Lovely building with a lot of character The staff in the hotel and bar make this place! They are absolutely fantastic and so positive and passionate My only grumble … partly my own fault not noticing the thermostat on the wall was waking up in 28 degrees so not the best night sleep- no full length mirror in room which made getting ready not the easiest

Quirky, needs better service and a little love

A ‘quirky’ rather than mainstream hotel, and that, combined with location was what drew us to the Courthouse. We took two rooms for a family of 4 and had to pay an extra £20 for early check-in (13:00 instead of 15:00) which is often a free service offered by hotels. Rooms were spacious and well designed, clean but getting a little tired, for example (very) loose toilet flushes in both the rooms we stayed in. Breakfast service was not great, we found our way to the restaurant and seated ourselves as no one was around. We waited for a while but still no one came and we had to go back to reception to ask if there was anyone one to take order. I’m the end we waited for about 10 minutes - our order was taken and the food was ok. Coffee poor. The Courthouse was not cheap, and for the price I expected much more. Better service (more, faster) would make this an offering more in keeping with its rate.

Liked: Cleanliness
Very unique and interesting proprty - I didn't get chance to explore properly so not able to rate amenities / facilities really. Very comfy bed and lovely big bathroom - only minor concern woud be that it is somewhat dimly lit in the stairwell and no "big light" in the bedroom - so reading a paper would be difficult. Would stay again....

bespoke and unusual

The place has had a an up lift and the room we stayed in was airy spacious and we had a room with 2 double beds and it was great very comfortable. They had great extras like toiletries and fudge etc had put a lot of thought in to it. The bar restaurant was also incredibly decorated. The only thing i would change is the air con in the rooms had been switched off and a fan provided but i think all hotels have done this in the hot weather.

Super Loud music playing outside until late at night on a Monday and Tuesday evening - despite no-one being there to play it to. Never anyone on reception desk. Poor service. Won’t stay again.
