Needs a refresh, but a good and convenient place.

The location of this hotel is fantastic for visiting the middle of the town. The staff members we met were lovely and help. The overall was however met down by a tired looking room. Despite the building being grade 2 listed some definite improvements could be made. In our room, for example, the shower holder was broken so we couldn't take a shower without holding the nozel. The towel radiator was stuck on so the bathroom was roasting. The sealing around the sink wasn't done with much care. The biggest issue however, was the bed. For some reason the mattress that was on the bed was bigger than the actual bed frame. This meant that the outside 6 inches of the bed on both sides were unusable as the mattress would bend as there was no support. I would stay here again, but not for the full price of the room. Overall a pleasant stay, the place just needs some tlc.

We had just the one night at the Silk House - and what a great night it was. Nick the owner was the most convivial of hosts and we had a great night in the bar singing, dancing and generally making merry. The room itself was quirky and comfortable although a little too warm. (Couldn't really open the window as it was on a main road). But otherwise a great stay! Thank you Nick!

Great location

Lovely building in a great location. No parking but street parking around the corner. Lovely bathroom with a huge roll top bath but not enough hot water to enjoy it, a shower would be more practical.

Good location but no parking as advertised.

We only booked this hotel because it was advertised as having ‘parking available’ but it was general street parking - there was no designated parking which is obviously what we expected. There was no bedside cabinet on one side - so no lamp, and no way to turn out the light except to get out of bed. The table lamp we did have was very cheap looking and flickered. There was no mirror in the room - only in the bathroom and that misted up after our bath. The Jacuzzi bath was good, if a little noisy. Water pressure wasn’t great. Our room faced the road so lots of traffic noise for most of the night. Host was welcoming and polite.
