My cousin and I frequently go out for a coffee and cake . None of our usual cafes were open. We decided to call into the hotel. I'm so glad we did . What a gem it is. The lounge area is gorgeous, spacious and welcoming. Irene or Eileen, The lady who greeted and served us was fabulous. Couldn't do enough for us and made us feel so welcome. They also serve my favourite coffee lavazza. We wish they had cake on the cafe menu. Such a shame because you can't beat cake and coffee. The lovely lady even went to see if she could find any mince pies for us. What a star❤️. Definitely going again with more friends and family. Please could you consider a cake or biscuit menu 🙏☕️🫖🍰🍩🍪❤️

We have just been there for a Cream Tea experience and what a really lovely experience it was. The food and drinks were lovely and it was a nice comfy warm place. However what made it truly Awesome was our lovely "server" Irene. She'd clearly taken time to get everything set up so we were in a nice comfy spot. After that, nothing was too much trouble. So many times she surprised us with her lovely care and attention, offering and arranging so many things for us. She really did go above snd beyond to make the whole experience special. It was a pleasure meeting and chatting with her. Thank you Irene!

The best service by the loveliest of lady manning the Bar Area, Irene is a credit to this hotel and always goes out of her way to look after me whilst working in the area, Those pots of tea are superb and always appreciated.

Amazing experience staff so friendly with helping with any enquiries, Abi was on the bar and helped my boyfriend with all the drinks and recommendations and took the time to explain all the drinks, most places don’t put in the time to do this but she went above and beyond to do so, the best place with the best staff :)

A great place to stay, with friendly and helpful staff. Love the fact that this hotel still has baths! We have stayed twice after long haul flights, and soaking in a warm bubble bath was bliss!
A variety of food is available throughout the day and evening, and there is even a pool and gym.

Went for afternoon tea with my husband and was served by Irene, the cakes and sandwiches were very well presented and fresh. Irene was very attentive, friendly and made our experience very enjoyable. Would definitely recommend. Ended up taking cakes home.

Good standard of accommodation for business trip. Reception staff warm and friendly. Located close enough to walk to town centre shops, restaurants and bars. Which is an attraction to get out and see some of the local life.

Like a converted office block - car park is really tiny and not a nice area to be parking elsewhere. I struck lucky with an early arrival but not sure this would be an option if they were full with conferences.
Standard HI although could have done with touching up the paint work in the room. Room was freezing - air con inefficient and noisy and radiator located behind thick curtains which defeats the object on a winters night.

Room, air con and service were fine. The food at the restaurant was however well below expectation. Ordered 4 different mains for dinner and they don’t taste good at all. So skip the food unless you absolutely can’t find other food to eat.
