Very good

The property is an old beautiful building and full of charakter. Its got hystory, the famous author J R Tolken (Lord of the Rings) Stayed there. Very friendly and helpful staff and a very comfortable stay.
We recently stayed 1 night 2 adults & 1 5yo.
On site parking, the hotel is full of character but the decor does look tired. The room we stayed in was a double and a sofabed, ensuite bathroom, lots of storage, again tired looking but was clean throughout. Breakfast was a buffet affair consisting of hot foods and a selection of cereals, fruits, yoghurt, pastries and breads which my 5yo loved.
We chose this hotel mainly for its on site parking as well as a base for legoland and the sealife centre, yes it was a walk but thats our thing.
Would we stay here again? yes 😊
Hotel has some lovely original features. Rooms do vary in style and comfort.
We found all staff really welcoming and friendly.
Stayed for breakfast this time with a good selection of hot and continental choice.
Would stay again!
Outdated
Furniture very unhygienic
Bed uncomfortable
Bar staff didn’t know how to pull a pint or make a shandy resulted in two bottles of beer and 30 minute wait as they didn’t know how to use the till
Very frustrating
Website showed a beautiful place
Rooms are in what I could only describe as a prison block

Was average and we didn’t make it for breakfast as we had jet lag with two small kids and they still charged us
It was a good stay. Reception staff helpful and room good. No bottled water in the room was a surprise.
The restaurant was for breakfast only and the expectation was that you would order food in.
The location was convenient for me and I’d stay there again.
Good hotel at reasonable price just outside city centre. Large comfortable and clean bedroom with good facilities. Very good cooked and continental breakfast.
Only downside was the hotel has no lift and quite a long walk from reception to bedroom up stairs and winding corridors. We did get lost on one occasion
Good stay in the hotel, beds and pillows nice and comfortable. Breakfast was as you would expect, nothing fancy just self service for both cooked and continental.
The staff were fantastic, their service was great, there is no lift to upstairs rooms and we were on the 2nd floor, staff did carry my bag up and down but there should be a lift in the new part of the building. It is a lovely old building with charm and close to the city. Filter in bathroom (on wall) needs cleaning it was clogged with fluff and creating the start of mold in the bathroom.
