Comfortable room & beds. Decent-size car park Breakfast: was a menu rather than serve-yourself buffet, and it wasn't especially nice

Very warm welcome from Chris as we arrived set the tone for a happy, relaxing break. Room was a good size, clean, with a comfortable bed. The free wifi is a must for us these days and it connected immediately.The swimming pool was the perfect temperature with plenty of towels in the changing rooms. At meal times Sammy was the perfect host and we enjoyed the full English breakfast. The secure parking was much appreciated. Nothing really but the evening meals were expensive and portions too big. It would be better to reduce both.

The large and comfortable family room which was nice and cosy as well as being very clean. The staff were very efficient and friendly. My daughter loved the pool and my husband loved the large (and free) car park, especially when we noticed the prices at the car parks in the city centre! Its nice that the hotel is an easily-walkable distance from the town centre. The creaky floorboards kept waking me up at night when other guests were moving around, but it was probably what I expected from an old building.

The location and free parking. I felt the room was very overpriced for what it was. It was not very spacious and the bathroom was outdated. The breakfast was also average.

We liked the comfortable warm room and the four poster bed .We also thought the complimentary hot chocolate and biscuits on the tea tray were very welcome after a chilly, damp day spent shopping,The breakfast was all waitress served,(no self service queues here,)by friendly efficient smiling staff.

Everything about this place is impressive from the first meeting to the checking out process Chris on reception is a superb example and many other hotels could do well just watching his manner and hoping to emulate his style The room surpassed all expectations and our stay could not have been better there is a cracking pool and breakfast was one of the finest ever sampled in a uk hotel I can only thank the staff at the Kilima for saving what was nearly a complete disaster of a trip away Cant think of anything
