    The corridor outside room 112 had a very musty smell. The room had a lot of noise from the bar that was located next to the hotel and the bottle collection lorry for the bar was a very early alarm call at 6am, emptying the glass from the bins.

    Location was excellent. Staff very attentive. Room facilities great, beds very comfortable.

    We stayed for 3 nights and never got out towels changed once which we thought was very poor. Also we had to ask for extra tea bags andmilk that wasn't provided every day. For a hotel to me is unacceptable.

    Very central for a concert we were attending.

    The room was small and dark and looked tired. The car park (owned by the hotel) was £30, arriving from 2 PM on a Friday and leaving at 11 AM on a Sunday. The staff weren’t very friendly and complained that it was busy and that they were tired. Breakfast food ran out, we ended up going elsewhere.

    Great location.

    The drainage our room is faulty. The shower tray is shallow and the drain is blocking back, so the water is leaking out and soaking the floor and making the carpet in the entrance wet. This has caused decoration to deteriorate around the door and frame, but worse the smell of damp and drains is bad. On checking out we mentioned this to reception staff, they apologised and asked if affected our stay. Because we were only there 1 night and the hotel was fully booked there was not much they could do about it. However what was surprising was the drainage problem was a known issue. The drainage will not resolve itself and will require investigation. Spoiled somewhat an otherwise pleasant hotel.

    nice central location easy to park. reception really friendly and easy to check in and out. Breakfast was great loads of hot food and the staff were working hard.

    Not the hotel's fault this, but the people in the room next to us put their TV on at 8am very loudly and unfortunately it wasn't a very thick wall between us so was heard clearly through it. Our alarm was set for 8.30am anyway so wasn't the biggest issue but had we been wanting a lie in that would have been a bigger issue.

    Asked for an early check in as needed to be at a wedding reception and that was fine. Asked for taxi details and was given a choice of 4 (and luckily used the best, Kings Abbey). On arrival receptionist, Joe, was really welcoming and very helpful in sorting the rooms out as we had three rooms in total. Rooms were very comfortable, well laid out with good amount of space so we weren't tripping over things. Nice bathroom, lovely shower. Tea making facilities & TV all good. Beds were very comfy and nice that they had put a fan in the room as it was warm at night but that took the edge of that.
