The receptionist was very helpful. The room perfectly adequate, BUT the room was very cold. The radiator and towel rail were not working. Food was very good, BUT the service shocking! 45 mins for our mains to arrive and over 30mins for desserts. Car parking was very conveniently right outside. Would not rebook for that Hotel.

Sorry, unable to review properly - I arrived at 7pm, jet lagged from an overnight flight from Canada. I had a nice meal with my brother and his wife and went to bed. I woke up at ten to eleven (check out is at eleven), threw on some clothes and left. Unable to comment on the hotel.
