Decent value for money and great staff
On arrival I was a little apprehensive as the building looks dated, not my usual hotel to stay at in Lichfield so did wonder if I had made a mistake in booking.... however, I was greeted warmly by reception and took my bags to my room which was large, spacious, well equipped and spotlessly clean. The bed was comfy and I had no issues at all with a lovely view over the front of the hotel. We used the bar before heading into town - again staff were great. Decor a little dated but not in any way shabby. Breakfast was served - again by helpful staff and was a reasonable standard. Plenty of choice and enough to set you up for any day ahead. Overall I was really pleased with the hotel - yes it is a bit dated but the room and the staff made up for some aged decor. I will stay again.

A great hotel with great staff
This hotel is fantastic value for money in a great location. We stayed for the weekend to attend Lichfield Festival at Beacon park, which the hotel is perfectly located for. The hotel staff were fully booked and worked their socks off. They had sufficient parking with an attendant on the entrance to ensure that hotel guests could get a space. Check in was easy at the end of the evening and breakfast was superb. The only tip I would have which is not a criticism, is to close the window at night as the rooms either are on a main road or you can hear noise from breakfast being set up on from the carpark from 6am. No aircon but a fan was in the room and was fine. A great team who made our stay really comfortable land will definitely return.

Excellent staff and good value hotel
Great staff who helped with baggage (there’s a narrow staircase) on arrival and departure. Good breakfast is included, and the stay was a very reasonable price overall. There is a fan in the room which cooled it down well. The location is on the Main Street 7 minutes walk from the cathedral

Charming older property
This is my second time here so i knew what to expect. It's an older property so showers are in baths but this was not a problem. A spaceous and comfortable bar with entertainment on some nights.

Family feel hotel
Even though this hotel is part of a group it has the feel of a family owned hotel, the staff cannot do enough for you and are very welcoming and friendly!!!! If you decide to have breakfast it is of very good quality and a good variety of choices with excellent service. I have been coming here for the past 3 years and cannot recommend it highly enough. It is in a great location if you want to walk around the centre of Lichfield and go for a drink or food.

Contractors doss, not a hotel
This is a contractors hotel, you have to pay for parking which isn't advertised, rooms are clean but very dated, no restaurant on site you have to walk to a sister hotel for a meal, or you can order a pizza with your pint. Staff are brilliant and a credit to the owners, but sadly not somewhere you would take a family or partner,
