Good Stay
Great stay, food and service was great, evening meal and breakfast were good. Nice comfy spacious room. Only let down was being asked for card details when checking out despite them having card machines seemed strange.

We were moved after checking in because Renovations were being done early in front of our room. We were upgraded which was nice, but the room was noisy as traffic started early in the am. It was drafty and we couldn't regulate the temp. Too cold to too hot with drafts. The room was aesthetically pleasing and apparently Richard II stayed there. It was unusually cold weather so that was probably not expected.

Need more staff
Breakfast slow as only 1 member of staff. Coffee machine not working. Rubbish variety at breakfast. They have a nice restaurant and reception area but don’t use it. Instead there’s a crappy table in corner and has a pub vibe. Rooms smell of glade plug ins is unbearable. Bedroom uncomfortable as curtains don’t keep light out, could do with blinds.

This was a very last minute stay due to a cancelled job I was on. The staff were amazing and very welcoming. Fantastic food and service and a very early taxi was booked by the hotel for me and arrived on time. Excellent all round and hope to be back again soon.

Disappointed is an understatement from our arrival reception was empty eventually some came checked us in and said breakfast is in the front of the building from 9am. No mention of evening meal times and availability. The room was very nice apart from the smell of sewage in the bathroom. We went down for breakfast was asked if we wanted tea or coffee and of she went to get us it no mention of the continental buffet juices etc she returned with our drinks and then disappeared for 20 minutes we had to go and ask another member of staff if we could order breakfast really need to sort out staff training really gone down hill.
