"Very good location near to the centre of town and not too far away from the station which is rather out of town. Beautiful old building and comfortable albeit compact room. Very nice staff and we loved everything apart from the breakfast - self-service and rather poor quality cold food items with little choice. It was a surprise as it didn’t chime with the rest of the hotel which lent itself towards a more upscale service so hopefully this is constructive feedback."

"Great location, we used the Castle Hill car park, that was a 15 minute walk, but cheaper. Before going, I checked that I could leave our baggage in reception and the response was quick and helpful. The rooms were lovely and spacious for the three of us. All the extra’s, like body wash, shampoo etc smelt lovely. Nice to have decent toilet roll. Loved the kitchen with the dishwasher, fridge & coffee machine. Would definitely stay again."
