Staff were friendly and helpful. Convenient car parking. Our room was a good size but very tired decor, dust/cobwebs hanging from ceiling, bathroom very old fashioned and in serious need of modernisation. The bedroom (Room 9) overlooked a noisy courtyard and there was music playing until at least 11pm. Breakfast was very good. The hotel also sent an unnecessarily high number of messages via Expedia in the run up to our stay which was more annoying than helpful, particularly as they didn’t display properly and were mostly trying to sell upgrades to our stay.

The hotel had everything we needed, close to the train station and numerous restaurants and retailers. However, we chose to eat our evening meal in the charming hotel restaurant. It was a delicious and plentiful, home cooked meal. Our room had a comfortable bed, lots of natural light and a large, full glass shower, which is difficult to find in conventional hotels these days. I wish to commend the hotel staff, in particular Ms. Gayle, at the reception desk, who went out of her way to return a valuable, person item, my eyeglasses. Without hesitation, she immediately put them in the mail. I received them within 24 hours, averting a holiday disaster. Thank you George Hotel, you truly made us feel at home!
