White Hart Hotel & Apartments

8/10 Good
"Nice enough hotel with nicely decorated communal areas and a great bar, the breakfast was very nice, my main issue was the room was very dated, with bathroom tiles falling off the wall, a slow draining sink and the shower head was very low down, Room 302 I also think the car parking charge for every hour after 14:00 on the day of departure a bit poor"

"Hi good comfortable stay though the curtain in the room (145) is almost completely jammed and the pelmet is hanging down on the right hand side. This needs attending to as it keeps the room dark and comfortable to sleep in. parking suggests guests are not the only ones using it, on arrival tea time car park was jammed later much clearer. Breakfast was good staff attentive and helpful"
