The location of the hotel is perfect....only 5 minutes walk for the centre! The staff was very pleasant and helpful! The room was very clean and comfortable and the price for this room I think was excellent!

Great located near the Castle. A room with Castle view is a room with real full view of the Castle!

The restaurant was pleasant and breakfast very enjoyable. The wifi was a plus. The Point is showing its age and while the bed was comfortable and clean, the bathroom lacked soap, the toilet seat was falling off, the shower curtain needed replacing - it was mouldy and smelly, and the shower ran hot and cold.

The staff were very friendly and helpful The standard of our so called superior room did not live up to expectations, starting to look shabby and poorly furnished. He standard of food was poor and we complained about the standard of our evening meal. The breakfast was edible!! There did not appear to be anyone in charge and the hot buffet did not look or taste appetisin and was not hot, definitely not worth £13.95

I liked the location The room we were in needed a re-paint as did the bathroom. Generally very dated, the window frames were dirty- needed painting. The carpet was dirty. The remote control was temperamental. The toilet flush made a loud noise every time it was used. The room did not look like the rooms on their website. Definitely too expensive for the quality of accommodation

great location, close to the Castle, got a good deal on price make sure you ask for a room not facing the main street or on a higher level. we got a room on the 1st floor with a huge window facong the main street which meant noise and not really being able to open the curtains since it would be as being in a shopping window. they do give you free earplugs in the room though. wi fi only free in the lobby area and didn't really work anyway. lightning in the room not very good - no big light.

Food was good. Friendly and efficient staff. Location good for Castle and main central area. Hotel room was very dark needed lights on in day time. Not a big problem as we were out most of the day.

It was at a good location, and the price was verry competitive, even during a busy touristic weekend. We liked being able to leave our luggages the next day before our departure. Bathroom was fine. The room smelt of cigarets, and was very poorly lit. The wall was painted in a not-really-happy grey which prompted us to go out asap. Instead of putting double glazing, they provide you with ear plugs. Well, it comes with the price. Avoid for a romantic weekend like we did.

great location, just a 5 minutes walk to castle...clean and spacious room, with comfortable bed and pillows..the temperature of the room was fine as we travelled on april 2012 but don't know when winter period, as the heater of the room seems not to be working when we tried it on, it doesn't feel warming,anyway we didn't bother reporting it as the duvet kept us warm ... receptionist- ela is very friendly and helpful there are many affordable restaurants, food shops .. can't find fault in our stay as the price of the room was reasonable

We liked the location of the hotel. In 1954 I worked in the building when it was St. Cuthberts....first job out of school, and would be nice to stay in the loaction. I would certainly recommend it to other travellers. The hotel is very central for activities and good eating places. Staff were very friendly.

Friendly staff, great location. Modern bar and brassiere very nice. Windows didn't open so quite stuffy. A little disappointed in the superior castle room. Limited view of castle due to large glass sliding door to window. You had to be right up to the window to view the castle.

The room was big if sparse but had lots of features for the price and everything to a good standard. Only complaints would be that it could use a coat of paint in places and the hallways were a bit uncared for but nothing that I was concerned about as the room was great.
