Beautiful hotel …the historical and architectural details were fabulous and the room was very comfortable. However, they advertise a restaurant which does not exist unless you book ahead. Very disappointing!

This was a small friendly hotel in a good location. The staff were pleasant and we felt that we had value for money. The building is in need of a little maintenance, and the cooked breakfast was ample. There were a few parking spaces available at no addional charge.

The bedroom was on the small side. The ensuite looked like it had been recently updated unlike the bedroom which was a little tired. The air conditioning was not available. The best thing was it's location. Everything else was a reflection of the reasonable price

Staff were lovely and friendly and keen to help. After booking a 'Junior Suite' for a birthday gift, I was a little disappointed by the size of the room. I am not sure what made it a suite as it looked like a small double to me. We were on the ground floor with the view of a car park which a prison transporter would regularly pick up and drop off. Beautiful building internal and out. Breakfast had everything you needed. Stored our bags after check out until our train. Great location for City Centre
