Loved this hotel. A short walk from town but if you prefer they offers shuttle bus to town between certain times! Couldnt do enough for my partner and I. Also gave us a free welcome drink voucher. Has a lovely veiw of the river avon with the cathedral spire in the background. Free parking. Even let us leave the car there all day after we checked out. Would book again!

Great hotel approx 15 min walk from the city centre. Rooms were very comfortable and had air con. Breakfast was good hot and fresh and eggs were made to order and you helped yourself to the rest. I think more staff would help though at busy times as they were getting orders, drinks, keeping buffet stocked and cleaning tables. Only 2 on duty.

Great find!
Hotel staff were friendly and attentive. They have a shuttle bus in the evening if you don’t fancy the short walk in to town. Hotel was exceptionally clean. Shower wasn’t great, but did the job. Excellent value for money.

Charming and comfy hotel.
The hotel is full of character and the staff were very friendly. The room was clean, spacious and comfy. We had a lovely view of the river. Breakfast was a self service buffet with plenty of choice. Unfortunately, the eggs and mushrooms were cold due to a malfunction of the heated container. However, as soon as we pointed it out, we were given freshly cooked replacements and our breakfast cost refunded. Impeccable service!
