8/10 Good
"A lovely grand hotel that is a little past its prime. The room in the Sidings is connect to the main hotel by a long corridor with a weird smell. Thankfully the room was clean and did not smell. The bathtub was chipped with exposed black enamel. Bed was comfortable but the pillows were a little hard. I cannot comment on the food as we did not eat in the hotel or use the gym / pool. The location is perfect right next to the train station with an exit directly to the station. No train noice so that was a plus. Everything in town was walking distance and if you really don't want to walk there are lots of busses and cabs next door at the station."

"Was able to check in early which was a bonus. Breakfast was lovely and plentiful. Reception area spacious , clean and tidy. A lot of staff on hand to help. Location slightly abit too far from the centre if walking in and out frequently. 15 mins from Centre. 22 min from station ( however bus stop outside hotel which helps) We had a room on the 4th floor which was adequate in size, and noise from other rooms and corridor minimal. Drinks prices from hotel bar very reasonable."
