We were both very happy with room, unfortunately was right at top of hotel, but didn't mind as we were out the way of buzy floors below.
Good morning breakfast, staff very helpful.
Bar and reception area good.
Would stay again.

Excellent Value
Very helpful and efficient staff. The Hotel offers excellent value.
Breakfast was good, but we did not eat at lunch or dinner.
Our room was adequte but small and was one of their lesser rooms.
A lovely position would come again.

comfortable rooms and exceptional service
We were very impressed with the friendliness of the staff and the comfort in the rooms. Both the bedroom and the public rooms were very clean and well maintained. The breakfast and evening meals were superb and we did enjoy having a freshly cooked breakfast brought to our table rather than a buffet style self service where the food had been hanging around. The overall impression was of happy staff creating a pleasant atmosphere
