The hotel is in an ideal position for the shops and train station. We had a last minute booking as our train was cancelled and the staff were very helpful. The hotel is a little dated but its lovely and the rooms have lots of nice little touches in them, we had a family room and there was even little rubber ducks in the bath. We had an evening meal and I've got to say its the best meal I've had for a long time.

Staff are lovely and the building has some nice old touches. The bar area and restaurant are nice but the rooms although clean could do with some updating. I stayed ina standard room wich was functional and cleanly decorated but the bathroom was a little dated. I would stay again though.

Grubby hotel.
First room had some kind of pump in bathroom for all the floor, very very loud pump noise when shower on or toilet flushed. Grubby room. Did move is straight away to a more premium room. This didn’t have the noise but still a very grubby room. Ground floor where reception is lovely u it’s you get to the floors where the rooms are. Wouldn’t stay here again

Lovely stay, great room. Spa facilities are fantastic. Possibly an upgrade to the exterior as the inside is superb.
