We stayed at the Diplomat Hotel to attend our friends wedding day. The venue was perfect, the attention to detail and attentive staff made it memorable. Our room was spotlessly clean and well presented. Very happy!!

My third visit to this hotel we both like staying here however during the last visit noticed prices have increased! Not in my view are warranted some staff need extra training notable bar staff it’s a shame really but the price increases have made us look further a field in future

The staff are lovely, helpful and welcoming and that is why I gave it 4 stars. Sadly the hotel itself has seen better days, it’s dated and scruffy, we didn’t have hot water when we showered, the walls are thin and we could hear conversations in the next room at night. It’s such a shame as the spa area is nice and the food in the restaurant was good but the building really does need proper maintaining to make it more appealing.

Good hotel as a base to explore local area
Staff very helpful and friendly. room comfortable and clean, although odd smell in shower sometimes, and could hear upstairs running taps, flushing toilet, but likely old pipework as it was an older building than the main hotel. Huge plus is having steam, sauna and gym facilities which were great.

Noisy!
Unknown to me, my bag in the room meant that I was staying in a separate Annex call the coach house This was away from the main hotel and on the main road, and there's obviously a listed building with its original windows, which meant that I heard the traffic all night long and especially at 5 am, so the two nights I was there I never got a decent night sleep

Love it here
Second time staying at this hotel, we were just as happy. Staff are very friendly and restaurant staff attentive. The food is beautiful, we had our evening meal and breakfast in Trubshaws restaurant. Both were lovely and tasty, great selection for breakfast. Spa is great too and free for guests to use. I look forward to our next visit.
