Stayed for one night. Staff were lovely, friendly and helpful. Breakfast and coffee was great! Rooms were very tired looking, clean but tired. Bed was uncomfortable, as were pillows, it was fine for one night but wouldn’t want to stay for any longer than that.

The bed was comfy and room clean. There was no parking within a quarter of a mile in a shopping carpark. London prices not London experience. Dining staff young and inexperienced. Food took over two and a half hours. Pizza had raw ball of cold mozzarella on it. We were in attic room despite telling them i am disabled with mobility issues. For safety there should be a grab rail to assist getting in and out of bath after shower due to height of bath and slipping possibility. Pleasant bar staff even if bar shuts at 11 on a Friday night. The biggest priority was car parking and narrow stairs.

Buzz buzz buzz
Great venue, great room, great breakfast. The only negative was the lack of sleep caused by a loud buzz every 2-3 minutes which can only be likened to someone repeatedly pressing an intercom button. Almost considered spending the night in my car.

Neil

Deeply disappointing
Bright green “exit” light in room 12 made sleep difficult. No curtains and inadequate blinds ensured early waking. Pillows old and lumpy. Towels old and torn. Very noisy street outside. Over-priced for what it was. One saving grace was a very good breakfast hi h was included in the price.
