Amazing themed rooms, very clean m with crisp white cotton sheets, and very comfy bed and pillows. Powerful shower and fluffy towels. Breakfast choice was amazing, cooked to order , very hot and tasty. Staff could not have been more helpful, requested more tea and milk sachets, bought to our room with 5 mins and asked if we would prefer fresh milk! Lady serving breakfast was lovely, very helpful and friendly Definitely stay here again

Loved it here, the food is exceptional!.. The room was very clean and tidy and all staff go above and beyond to be welcoming.. The one and only downside is the music was really loud in the bar, unfortunately it was the night we stayed that there was also a big party downstairs partying until 11pm!.. But don't let this out you off as it really is a very unique place to stay

Haven't been this disappointed since shreck 2

Poor show. Had meals at this smith and weston before and really enjoyed then so thought when I'm next down I'll book a night. First impression was good but whe i arrived at 9:30 but once i had been out to get somthing to eat (and returned) i found the shower not to be working! Unfortunately this was after the staff had left. In the morning while eating my yoghurt from the self serve the spoon texture felt a bit odd. Much to my disgust and horror the spoon was dirty! I thought it must have been me so went to get another to find 5/7 were dirty! Very disappointed. Then to top it off the staff member said the showers was a know issue and it should now be working..... unfortunately this was at half seven so no tome to use.

Great place to stay.

This is a great themed pub, hotel , the staff are friendly and on the ball , even showing you to your room . My room was clean and even carried on the Wild West theme . The food was a little limited, but is was a cowboy/ cowgirl place so I guess they eat a lot of burgers.

Right from check-in, staff were friendly and helpful. Riley took on my query about payment resolving the issue and satisfactorily explained the discrepancy between my app and his system. He took our bags to our room and ensured all was well. This excellent customer service by all staff members continued throughout our two night stay. A particular shout out to the smiley singing lady who made up our room. The room was clean and comfortable, nice big shower and good facilities. We would stay again.

Clean, comfortable and would definitely return

The check in process was a little unclear for me as the website didn't say much, I arrived during dinner service and it was a tad strange lugging myself and my bags through the restaurant as I didn't really know where to go but after guidance from the staff I checked in at the bar, there is a separate entrance/exit to use once checked in which made it easier for daily use rather than going through the busy restaurant all the time. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful and my room and ensuite were bigger than I had expected. The bed was a good size with lovely pillows and fluffy duvet, it felt like home. I liked the room facilities such as the coffee pod machine, much nicer than sachets of cheap coffee in the morning and the hairdryer was good too. My room was very clean upon arrival and refreshed daily. The TV actually had a good choice of channels which all worked unlike some places. The bathroom was a great size with a powerful shower, good sized shower not a tiny box shower like you might expect from a hotel and it had nice large fluffy towels. I felt very comfortable and it was like a home from home for a few days. I was apprehensive about being above the busy wild west restaurant with loud music but you don't hear a thing, it was very peaceful which was great. This was the most comfortable hotel stay I've had in a while and I'd definitely return.
