Grubby, grubby, grubby. Rooms, bar area, restaurant, corridors all filthy. Nasty fish and chips cooked in oil long overdue for changing. Delightful very young staff needing some serious direction.

It was boiling in my room and there was no information on how to work the heating system so I was uncomfortably hot. The staff asked what we wanted for tea and coffee in the morning, but didn't wait to listen to everyone's order and subsequently got it wrong. He also didn't smile once and no one asked how our stay was. It was all really expensive including the room and the drinks.

Really clean hotel both in the room and the bar and restaurant. Friendly staff particularly Katherine andGeorge on the first night and the lady who looked after us at breakfast. Only downside was the fish on the first night and chicken wings on the second night were a bit ovetcooked.

Great stay

It was a really lovely overnight stay, we couldn’t fault anything. Staff were friendly and attentive. Our room was lovely with everything you could need, lovely selection of coffee and tea, yummy biscuits and even a bottle of Porter to enjoy. The bed was very comfortable and great toiletries supplied. We had an evening meal which was very nice and the complimentary breakfast was delicious and set us up for the day. If in the area would definitely revisit

One night stay we had a lovely time and rooms well equipped. The hot weather made the room hot and air con would be a benefit. All rooms are on the ground floor. Food was great. Poor and inadequate lighting in the ladies toilet in the bar area.

Would Return

Don't usually do reviews however, happy to do so for the Cromwell Arms. Impressed with the design of the room and how well laid it was. Complimentary water, coffee, biscuits, fresh milk and a bottle of beer provided. Thanks for acknowledging partner's birthday - card appreciated. Although the room fronted a busy road, the double glazing was very effective. Air con also worked well. Food and drink were good and took advantage of the fixed price evening meal - well priced and beautifully cooked. Breakfast was cooked to order and very tasty. All the staff we met were friendly (thanks Tom) and helpful. Pleased we booked and would return if back in the area.
