I travel a lot for work and need to stay in a a variety of places usually on a budget. I really liked this hotel. It’s a traditional hotel with all the facilities you can ask for. Staff are friendly and helpful and the rooms were clean & tidy. It was an all round pleasant stay. I’d definitely book again.

Ideal position for accessing town centre
Unfortunately we were in the main hotel which is very dated. There was no proper blind on the bathroom windows which meant that people could see us when the light was on and it was dark. No privacy. The room was very dimly lit, the curtains were faded and the material was splitting .The bed was not too comfortable , the mattress needs replacing. Thecooked breakfast was tasty and served hot. The carpark was easily accessible Had no problems parking

Convenient location
Very convenient for shops and the train station. Friendly and very helpful staff. Parking on site. "Faded glory" perhaps describes the building best, old fashioned decor, bar and breakfast room functional but not inviting. If you have any mobility needs, even just an aching knee, mention it when booking as we were given a room at the top of the building accessed by 60 stairs..

Good property for staying in the centre of town. Our room was a very good size and well equipped with a small kitchen. Clean. The breakfast was adequate for my husband but little choice for a gluten free vegan.
