We have stayed many times at this hotel and love the area. The Hotel is at the top of the hill just out side the cathedral and has a nice seating area outside. The staff are very friendly and the breakfast is delicious. The decor in the is slightly dated but overall a very comfortable Hotel.

Tired and run down

Hotel not what it looks like on the website, very tired and dated, shower was terrible, hotel is in need of a refurb, we weren’t told about the paid parking until we checked out, had we had know we would have parked elsewhere! Service was with a don’t care attitude, would not recommend and would not stay again! This is not a budget hotel at over £150 per night we expected so much more, very disappointed.
