Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was lovely! The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with beautiful original beams that added a nice touch. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome throughout my visit. The location was perfect for exploring nearby attractions, although it had a slightly 'hotely' feel. The dining experience was generally excellent, but there were variations in the service. Overall, a pleasant experience at a good value for money.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were extremely comfortable and clean, exceeding our expectations, but the dampness was a serious issue that forced us to leave early due to the bad smell. The lack of prompt customer service was disappointing, as my complaint was not addressed as promised.
The hotel exudes warmth and friendliness, with exceptionally comfortable rooms that come with extra special touches like a variety of biscuits, hot chocolate, coffee, and teas. The staff, despite some minor hiccups, were incredibly professional and helpful. The location, while cozy and characterful, had some disturbances. The dining experience, though slightly lacking in options, offered room for improvement. The facilities were decent overall.
