    Very good location. Staff friendly and the rooms well equipped. We did not have a meal in the hotel so cannot comment about that. We would certainly return

    The location is perfect, in the centre but set back and by the river. Every member of staff I dealt with was polite and helpful. My room was a decent size and the bed was ultra comfortable. The TV was also a good size as well.

    Always book a river view room which, as a bonus, includes the cathedral. Clean. Friendly staff. Good facilities. Stayed many times and will continue to do so
