Nice enough, clean, pleasant staff. Easy reach of the train station. Poor lighting. Automatic lights in the corridors which don’t always turn on, rooms are dark which makes it awkward when trying to locate switches and negotiating access to the rooms.

Style over substance. Poor, indifferent service on front desk. We stayed for 1 night at the end of November and our room was cold as the heating in the room wasn’t working. We were eventually moved to another room where the heating also wasn’t working but it was marginally less cold. No managers around at the weekend to make decisions. We had to follow up with the hotel when we got home to request a refund but were eventually given a paltry 20% refund. There was no ironing board to go with the iron. Breakfast is not a buffet but served to your room which was not made clear when we booked.

The location and building were lovely. The room was very spacious and nicely furnished! It can be a bit noisy on an evening from nearby bars but it wasn’t anything of an issue for me. Unfortunately on my stay the heating was not working and some others within the hotel had mentioned. So was a little bit cold in the room. Overall a nice stay! With nice staff!

A very weird experience. The only (300 GBP plus per night) hotel that doesn't clean the room during the stay. Broken AC. No hot water. Run by children with very little clue. Super noisy at weekends (but of course you are in the village so that's what you would expect) but trust me you will be at the party until 3am even if you are in bed. Room itself (velvet suite) was ok but the bathroom was so tiny it was basically unusable for big 6ft2 guys You spend less staying at the Lowery or the Gotham - and you should
