This is not a four star hotel. It’s very tired and the staff looked very tired and stressed too. The fixtures and fittings are worn and cracked in the room, single glaze windows over a noisy road and busy car wash, Breakfast was an average offering. At check in after 3pm we had a long queue and we heard the person on reception whisper to their colleague ‘we don’t have any rooms ready’. I think the staff we met were doing their best but the whole place needs a reset and tidy up.

Online Booking and check in were easy and there is on site parking (for an extra charge) The hotel is large and has some very grand looking features, with a fascinating history well situated on the north shore with an easy walk or tram ride along the promenade. The beds were comfortable, it was a budget room so we were at the side of the hotel towards the back, therefore only a view of the side street, could have been cleaner found long dark hairs in the bathroom and coffee cups hadnt been washed, also there was a musty smell in the room, there was a banging noise going on most of the night which kept us awake as if a door or window had been left open in an adjacent room. We had an evening meal which was very nice, all staff were very pleasant Breakfast was good, plenty of choice for hot and cold dishes, and staff were very nice. Overall would probably stay there again but ask for a better room

We did have a pleasant day. The room is a bit outdated back in the 70s and unfortunately as well they don’t have really any disabled access rooms which is not ideal. I did ask him before arrival but I needed somewhere so I could have a shower put the room I had didn’t have a shower that I could get into and they did try to move it but unfortunately that room was also the same situation . However, we had a brilliant night sleep and the breakfast was really nice as well. There’s nothing to write home about but it’s a nice place and will return

Staff very welcoming, foyer area lovely, very festive. Rooms less so - cobwebs from light shade to ceiling, torn net curtains, carpets a bit stained. Overall looking a bit tired and in need of refurbishment. On the plus side, the room was warm, with plenty of hot water and the bed linen very clean and fresh. The breakfast was OK. I think I would struggle to describe this as a four star hotel but that said, it was good value for what we paid - not 4 star prices!

Lovely old hotel and delicious food but our room on the second floor was very cold. It took absolute hours to warm up and needed a good clean, including the carpet. The Derby dining room was also cold as the heater wasn't on...in mid December! £9 for two cups of tea in a dirty mug. Literally 2 cups of tea, we got 2 pots...one filled with tea and one filled with milk??? The food was the highlight of our stay. They must have an outstanding chef! Overall, a bit more attention to detail would have made our stay far more enjoyable.
