The hotel is lovely the bedrooms are comfortable but in need of some tlc.
Breakfast was amazing
room was fine, shower was awkward probably cos its so old now and needs replacing. Staff were brilliant , very helpful. dinner and breakfast was fine, no complaints
There are 3 Adults
Myself and 2 young ladies with LD
I cannot fault the staff
Everyone was very friendly and very helpful
Our family room was very nice and big with a big bathroom
Beds were comfortable the only negative was it was the room was cold but the temperature outside was very cold so it didn't help.
We had a meal in the restaurant which was excellent
Breakfast was included in our stay
Which again was excellent
Definitely recommend

Very clean and comfortable. A few little things that you would expect from an old property but overall a good experience. Central location with plenty of parking. All the staff were delightful and nothing was too much trouble for them

The staff was excellent. The room I had was very dated, but clean. Again the bathroom was a bit dated and could have had a shaving mirror. The shower is very strong and loads of very hot water. The breakfast was excellent and very filling.
Room was clean and the staff welcoming. Breakfast was well cooked. Downside was the height of the bed meant getting in and out difficult. Perhaps for shorter people a footstool in the room would be useful.
I booked multiple rooms for a week for work and all the rooms were very very tired. The pub itself is okay but the rooms are definitely in need of upgrading. The bathrooms havent been touched since the 50's

Wasnt bad. But wanted a preserve my food for the next day but No fridges. Went to reception. But they claimed they cant keep my food for the next day
We stayed in the family room in the attic it was alright but wouldn’t rush back, our double bed was comfy but boys beds were very hard, it was clean but very very dated lighting was very poor, tv very small, no lifts and getting big heavy suitcases up all them stairs was a struggle. But the town was nice canny few pubs in town

Good stay…. Don’t pay for parking!
The car parking is free, don’t use the park and pay machine; the sign is misleading.
You can get your money back (I haven’t managed), it’s hard to speak to a person from Britannia parking!
