we chose Prince of Wales as we had stayed several times before, so we were under no illusions, It's a Victorian Hotel, It has Good Points & Bad Points, Food is of a Adequate standard, not Gourmet but wholesome ! Breakfast plenty food and choice, Bedrooms are Newly Decorated (compared to last time we stayed), Bed, Mattress past its use by date, old metal springs, but no bounce left in it , it was like laying on a hard slab, needs changing, rest of bedroom very spacious, and clean , Hotel interior has been spruced up without losing its charm, Would we stay again YES, Good value for the price, One Niggle only card payment at Bar ??? Cash is King !!

Warm welcome. Room at back of hotel. Woken at 6 by a very loud whirring noise which we could only assume was the kitchen extractor fan. Coming back to the room in the evening, the room was full of food smells. There was a missing light bulb in the bathroom which made it very dim. Also the metal grid part of the plug hole was missing, so it was just a hole. These two faults were reported to reception, so it would be interesting to know if they’ve been rectified since we left. I would have thought the cleaner would have noticed these faults and reported them! There was no internet access in the bedroom, and indeed even in the hotel reception area. Also struggled to get a phone signal. As soon as we got onto Lord Street it seemed fine. Wouldn’t stay here again.

Tired Hotel but Friendly Service

Room 319 on the 3rd floor had a limited view over the roof tops. Red hot and the windows would only open a bit due to safety chains on them. Bed was too hard for me, so i slept poorly. The Shower over the bath was nice and hot. Floor creaked due to age and carpets, whilst clean, look dirty due to their age. Parking was ok but charged at £6.00 overnight. Location of the hotel is great. Good bars and restaurants all within a 10 minute walk. Ate at an Italian called Volare, which was 10 mins up Lord Street.

Room was a state with a ceiling repair and a water stain down the wall. Carpets were thread bare and stained. Mattress was an old spring mattress and pinged every time you moved.. real shame as the property looks nice from outside… it’s more than a travel lodge but is a lower spec room

Shame

Grade 2 listed building looks great from the outside, lobby area beautiful period. First room offered was nothing more than a box, no windows and smelt of smoke. Very good help from reception to change rooms. The second room had windows but the frames are so dated and rotten that the wind just blew in through the gaps. The bed was small, very hard and uncomfortable. Breakfast was slightly better than ok.
