Unfortunately we didn't find the staff at all helpful. The continental breakfast was poor ... Soggy pre frozen pastries in a stained picnic hamper.
However the roo. Was clean and tidy and bar well stocked.

I have thought long and hard about leaving a review for this stay. I believe if you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all. However i can say something nice so i will continue. Our arrival/first impression was very poor. The 'lady' who greeted us was rude,blunt and unwelcoming . The Hotel should check who was on duty on Monday 11th May at 4pm. I would advise they are sent on a hospitality refresher course. We weren't shown to our room, just told where it was. When i entered the room i cried it was dark,dingy and dated. We don't mind dated, this is an historic old building but it looked very 'unloved'. We would have addressed these issues but didn't feel able to due to the reception we had. Laterly in our stay we found other staff to be polite, and friendly. The barman and kitchen staff were lovely. My husband had a cooked full English breakfast which he said was really good. The door to our bathroom was really grubby with dirty fingerprints. The large shower head was dirty,i didn't shower because of this. On the morning of our departure we were given a continental breakfast which we took away with us.

Room was advertised to have breakfast included. What a misleading, dishonest statement by the hotel. On arrival I was advised the breakfast was a continental with fresh pastries. Not so. Pastries were thawed out frozen items. Mostly inedible. An OJ, yoghurt, small amount of fresh milk, boring corn flakes. Not even additional tea or coffee sachets. IF THE BREAKFAST IS CONTINENTAL IT NEEDS TO BE HONESTLY DISCLOSED IN THE HOTEL INFORMATION SO POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS CAN MAKE AN INFORMED CHOICE. I never choose continental. I surely will never choose or recommend this hotel. What a very unpleasant experience.

Bed was comfortable and parking was just across the street. Would not stay in the summer as it would be noisy. Shower was good but could do with a good clean as lots of mould on the grouting

Old.room with stained carpets, dust everywhere, noisy, mold on shower curtains, a dirty moldy towel was left behind the bath, never noticed by whoever cleaned there. It's authentic, I'll give it that...

Bed was crap but luckily for me I didn’t have to sleep on it. The lock broke on my colleagues door meaning he wasn’t able to get in to his room. No staff, no contact number. I slept on the floor and my colleague got the horrible bed. We probably both had a rubbish night

Nice period features and decor. Breakfast hamper nice touch. Quite good tea tray. Nice big bath tub and powerful shower however:
Shower curtains mouldy
Automatic bathroom light turned off every five minutes
Main heating off in December - cold heated towel rail.
Bed linen had faint smell of pub kitchen fat.
TV obscured by four poster bed poster - poor position. No bbc 1 or 2 on television.
Unable to lock room door from inside - staff door in room.
No still water in room.
Aware it’s probably a listed building - but the noisiest place I’ve stayed in.

Strange arrangement regarding security which sole female travellers may find unsettling. Also heating was blasting out of the radiator which I tried to turn down but the control knob broke off. Many good qualities to accommodation but for the price the standard of some aspects, especially security and mattress quality, was poor. Several electrical sockets in my room didn’t work. All staff I met were friendly and polite. Milk was forgotten when my first morning breakfast hamper appeared - no staff if anything is needed. My friend’s hamper was completely forgotten so she had no breakfast!

Pros: Friendly staff, clean room and great shower, close by NCP parking that came in at £7.80 for 24hrs, staff were happy to refund breakfast payment.
Cons: Room freezing to start with! (heating had not been put on), bed matress not for those with a bad back, council bin run at 5am and local building works very noisy (not hotel's fault), staff did not inform us that breakfast slot had a 10 minute limit - arrived at 9.10am to be told too late and would not be served!!!!! How rude.
Over all would try again in the summer perhaps, if other city center hotels were full. Beer was well kept and bar was busy.
