Wonderful

Been a number of years since I last stayed at the Earl, but will be my go to when in the area for sure. Rooms were comfortable, well equipped and in immaculate condition. Staff were super friendly and helpful throughout my stay, and breakfast was incredible. Special shout out to the eggs royale, lovely to have some healthy breakfast choices along with the usual full English - which looked equally good! Many thanks to all!

On arrival the outside seating area looked ready for a refresh and then the reception seemed disinterested in our arrival so not a good start. When I asked the receptionist if I should pay now she said now or later it's up to you so I paid then. She informed me that there were two lifts and we could use either so I asked which was the closest to our room as my sister has mobility issues, she said there was the same distance between so it didn't matter which we used, but later on we discovered that the second one, the one we didn't use, was literally a dozen steps from the room whereas the one we used entailed much more walking than that, the receptionist should have told us that. However, she did offer to get us a taxi and gave us some information about where we were going. After that we found the bar staff very good indeed, the cleaners pleasant and helpful. We also loved the full on art deco design! Our twin room was spacious with a good walk in shower and a roomy bathroom. Plenty of clothes storage, good towels and toiletries and comfy beds. The cleanliness was excellent throughout. Therefore we would return but do think one receptionist could do with a little more training. The other two I came across were professional, friendly and helpful.

Paid for an executive room but I am afraid it was not acceptable. The hotel has sealed the windows in the room and the only ventilation is from the a/c. Upon entering the room we were overwhelmed with the intense heat that has built up. We switched on the air con and set it to the fast speed and coldest temp. 2 hrs later and the room was still very hot. We tried another room and it was the same situation. Even worse in fact because the 2 hrs we spent in the first room was watered. We had to start over again. I had to ask reception for a fan and they did give us a fan that helped.

Good Hotel would use again

Quick friendly check in, quirky 20’s Art Deco reception, bar and rooms. Bed very comfy and shower nice and big. Local restaurants a short walk away, I didn’t eat or use the bar at the hotel Only downside room quite noisy due to traffic, and due to early meeting I couldn’t have breakfast
