Last visit to Rufford Arms

It was a convenient stay as we were visiting an elderly relative in Southport. My wife was a bit uncomfortable in bed saying it had some lumps in the mattress. She was unable to have a shower as all the hotel rooms only have a shower over the bath and she cannot climb over the edge. From a safety point of view there was no handrail for the shower on the wall. We will not be staying there again.

Great little hotel

I spent one night on business. All of the staff were friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The room and bathroom were very clean. I had a great nights sleep on a very comfortable bed. The shower was brilliant and I could have stayed in it for hours. The food in the restaurant not the cheapest but the quality does justify the price. Breakfast was great. Will I stay here again - absolutely
