Overpriced and very tired!
This hotel has definitely seen better days. The carpets both in public and bedrooms are worn, and gives a poor impression of the place. The plumbing in the bathroom was terrible and the shower and bathroom suite would have been modern in the 1970s. It certainly is not value for money and I was pleased to leave after spending 2 nights there on business. Breakfast was good, but you felt you were imposing on the staff by interrupting their private chats to ask to order some coffee.

Our room was filthy. The beds were badly made, with a grease stain on a decorative cushion. The windows and frames were really dirty as was the desk and the coffee and tea tray. Worst of all was the bathroom. The underside rim of the toilet was dirty, the shower/tap combination corroded and the shower curtain grubby. The heated towel rail didn't work BUT worst of all there was BLOOD on the sink tap and the wall. Despite reporting this at once, nothing was done and the room remained the same. I cleaned up the blood. The hotel is very tatty with too few staff. Breakfast service on the first day was awful and there was no white bread available. The one good thing was dinner in the restaurant which was very nice. I was given a £50 refund, which on reflection I wish I had not accepted but was in a rush to leave. This hotel cost £120 per night, which under the circumstances is outrageous.

Terrible shower
Hotel is in need of a revamp!! Bathrooms especially!! You literally have to run around in the shower to get wet. I live my life in hotels and I ask for a comfy bed and a decent shower!! Sadly this failed massively in the shower department. Breakfast was nice and staff friendly but it’s let down by its amenities!!

Staff were lovely. The hotel is very tired and needs so much work. The actual building is beautiful. In saying that the beds were very comfy however the light bulb had gone in the bathroom so very dark. Great location

This is a lovely old hotel and keeps all its heritage , large room we stayed in with 4 poster bed was more like a suite , Lovely stay and very welcoming staff , even made it for breakfast on our check in day , Only on downside some of the fixtures are a bit worn but i suppose that comes with it being an old building , perfect for a place to stay after a day at the races

Beautiful old hotel with exceptional staff. Perhaps a little tired but very clean and had everything required for a short stay. Breakfast offered nice selection and good food. Breakfast staff were really stand out - prompt, considerate, friendly and helpful even when very busy.
