Lovely clean large room. Great tv with a superb picture. Plenty of tea / coffee and biscuits welcome tray. We were surprised how quiet our sleep was, the pub below was busy but no sound from it. The decoration of the whole venue is incredible with so much to look at. There is a lot of car spaces but the area is very busy so it’s a bit of a search to find one.

This is the perfect definition of a small english town stay. I loved the vibe of the rooms and the location. The rooms were clean and they provide complimentary biscuits and tea. The customer service was good as my boyfriend needed to catch a taxi somewhere and couldn’t do it himself so the Inn was able to call for him. The breakfast felt a bit pricy, but there was a cold buffet in addition to any hot item on their menu. Their fresh honey comb was really cool!

Das Hotel ist im Vintage Stil erbaut, bietet aber jeden notwendigen Komfort, hat alles was man braucht. Das Personal sympathisch, hilfsbereit, sehr freundlich und kompetent. Das Hotel ist sehr gut an den öffentlichen Verkehr eingebunden, was ich sehr zu schätzen wusste, da ich ausschliesslich mit Bahn und Bus unterwegs war. Das Restaurant gefiel mir ausserordentlich, einerseits wegen der Auswahl und anderseits durch das Ambiente.

The toilet roll holder was little bit out of reach and the 3rd floor hallway carpet had a big stain on it and only one chair in the room but still four stars

An all round good value for money hotel. A hotel with bags of character, large and spacious rooms and all cleanly presented. We would definitely choose to stay there again when we’re looking for accommodation in the area.

The hotel itself was very comfortable for our stay and one night. The bathroom is fairly basic but the shower was powerful and hot. Bed was comfy and air con was great and very cold! The place was also very quiet. We didn’t have breakfast so cannot comment

Lovely hotel though frustratingly nowhere to put your wash bag in the bathrooms or to sit in front a mirror to do your hair (so many hotels guilty of this). Staff are really great. We had a problem that was immediately resolved.

The room was excellent 👌 lovely and warm! Furnishings were delightful. Bathroom was lovely with both bath and shower. Food was lovely for both of the evenings that we stayed with lots of choices. Beer on tap in the bar was excellent especially if you're a badgers brewery fan which I am.

Parking is free and unlimited and opposite the hotel.. unusual in that the hotel is above a pub/reataurant.. There is a lift to all floors and AC in the room. Old fashioned key for the room door, which needs to be locked on exit Tea and coffee making with biscuits in the room and a good shower with a detachable head
