No Lift. Poor Wi-Fi.

Not so great any more, no mention made on the site or in the pre-stay message that the lift is out of order and apparently has been for some time. This is unforgiveable, especially for people like me with access needs, they did change my room from the 3rd to the 1st floor but there were no staff available to help take my luggage up the three long flights to Room 101(!). The wi-fi was insufficient to take part in a Zoom call without constant freezing. Staff were pleasant but seemed bored, as if serving out time on a doomed enterprise.

Just meh.

The lift wasn't working and I was on the 4th floor, so quite a few stairs to get up. The rooms up there are quite rundown in places and have no noise cancelling for people walking through the corridoors and loud doors that bang. The lock on the door wasn't great. But shower, tv were highlights. There were dusty rollerblinds too above the bed as I pulled them. There were lots of dark cabinet dressers but for no real reason. No fridge, no safe. Bed was clean and gave a ressonable night's sleep.

Disappointing Stay

Having stopped at this hotel several times previously I was incredibly disappointed with the standard we received on this occasion. I came here with my mum for a two night stay and was shocked to hear that we had to pay a £50 damages fee which we have never had to do before but this was never explained to us at the time. We were also told the lift wasn't in use and hadn't for about a month but we later found out it was a lot longer looking at previous reviews. My mum is 76, we were on the 3rd floor and there was no offer of any porter service which should have been implemented if the lift hasn't been in use for so long, we both struggled up the stairs with our cases. The room was pleasant and clean but we only had one set of towels between two, we had to ask several times for some more. There was very little staff anywhere, it's all looking very tired, the bar had was very limited as they had run out of lots of drinks and the menu hadn't been adapted to show this. We still enjoyed, the hotel is still beautiful and in a fab location I just hope someone can get it turned round.

Parking has increased in pricing from £10.00 a night, then they take a deposit of £50.00 which is given after 10-15 working days which the receptionist kept saying we understand new management. The lift wasn't working still. This has been more than a year. So the receptionist puts us up on the 4th floor when I told him my partner has asthma can you put us lower and he said no. Also the key card given was dirty, he had to write in the keycard our room number rather than on a card envelope so we couldn't see our room number properly. Such a let down really. Checking in took alot longer as everything is done on a tablet and the receptionist sounded extremely rude. Not sure if I want to stay again and I should really ask for my money back as the room wasn't clean.

The building is lovely. However, work remains to be done, to make it an excellent place to stay. The guest rooms do not have refrigerators. The lift was out of service during my entire 10-day stay. One faucet in my room was not working properly. And the same breakfast is served every day, without change.

AVOID RUN & HIDE!!

Absolutely shocking, I was here with my family and as soon as we step foot in the hotel. We saw a woman screaming at the reception front office complaining about feaces and blood in the bed. We were in complete shock, as it was 11pm and it was too late to go anywhere else we had no choice but to get a room. There was no elevator and we had to walk up 3 larges series of stairs with suitcases and prams, no notice of this prior to booking. We got up 3 flights of stairs and one of the staff showed us to our room and what do you know there was already someone in there! They had double booked, we had to walk down 2 flights of stairs again! To another room and the key would not work!! I wanted a drink and the same staff member couldn't operate the till!! When we finally checked out and got home - I got a parking ticket/fine for parking in the car park without paying. EVEN THOUGH I DID PAY!!! I would not stay here again, even if they paid me :)

Old Station hotel has hit the buffers

Grand Victorian hotel with elegant spacious interiors. Stay ruined by broken lift, broken tvs, broken phones in rooms. Tried three different rooms and no signal or wifi in any. Only merit of staying was the price...cheap as chips.

Overall it was a disappointing experience. The lift wasn’t working and we were on the fourth floor. Upon arrival there were no towels in the room. We were supposed to get a bathtub but we got a shower instead. When we arrived for breakfast there was no food and we had to wait 15 minutes. However breakfast was the highlight of our stay. The quality was really good.

Lift was out of order and has been for weeks no mention of this and I have a bad back and I’m struggling to walk, asked for a change of room but nothing available, if I had known before hand I wouldn’t have booked and would have gone elsewhere. It feels like they just wanted your money and not bothered about fixing the lift!

Wrong check in information

The information we received prior yo our stay informed us that check in was 2pm (this is also shown on Google maps as the check in time), so we were disappointed that when we arrived shortly aftef 2pm, we were told that check in yime had changed to 3pm, so we had to leave our bags and return an hour later. Lift out of order could have bedn a problem for some visitors.

Business stay

When checking in, receptionist was processing a bill on the PC. That is fine, and after waiting 30 secs to be acknowledged in the first place, was told "won't be a mo". If a mo is just that, then ok, but after 3 minutes and a second attempt at processing the transaction I would have thought a quick "sorry it is taking a bit longer" would go a long was to keeping me from feeling I was hanging around unnecessarily. When finally checking in, impression was I was a bit of an inconvenience to her, albeit that could be because of the first bit above. Overall stay fine but that intial impression was not good.

The lift wasn't working and I have a elderly mother with angina so walking up 2 floors was a real struggle. There were no curtains or blinds in the bathroom. When I complained the manager tried to tell me the windows were slightly frosted on the outside which was a lie. He ended up putting a towel across the window with 2 glasses to weigh it down! There seemed to be what looked like dried blood on the carpet and the tv didn't work and was in a big frame which we bashed ourselves on trying to walk round the beds! Avoid this hotel.

LIFT DOESN’T WORK!

By far the worst service and some rude staff! I got there at 2am as u had to travel so had late check in.. the night staff/manager was so rude! The lifts haven’t been working for a while which they haven’t mentioned anywhere.. Gave me the highest floor despite seeing my heavily pregnant wife.. asked him to give us another floor rudely said we have nothing and says in a rude manner do you still want to check in or leave.. we had no choice taking so many stairs.. with luggage and no help! breakfast was ridiculously poor!!
