Disappointing
Room was large and clean, bed comfortable. Lots of glasses and room service trays in all the corridors. Hotel desperately needs refurbishing, no atmosphere or style to the place. Shame as a waste of a potentially beautiful building

Expensive for the condition of the hotel.
We didn’t know until we arrived the hotel is closing down for a refurbishment and has been bought out. Our bathroom was dangerous. Shower was literally coming away from the wall toilet flush didn’t work every time. Bedroom dirty. We don’t mind tired as long as things work and are clean.

Stunning old building & comfy stay
Really enjoyed our little overnighter here. Absolutely stunning building. Nice size room with high ceiling in gorgeous Tudor style. Bed comfy nice bedding. Read some bad reviews but was pleasantly surprised. Yes the carpet is a little old and the chair by the window but it’s all part of the charm. Large modern bathroom. Only negative was a little dust on the windowsills nothing to ruin a lovely comfy night sleep and lovely staff at check in too

Welcoming and friendly. Room comfortable. The hotel is about to close for refurbishment- and it is looking pretty tired right now. Very conveniently situated for the theatre.

Wouldn't stay again
The location is good but the hotel is very shabby and dirty. Our hotel room had black mould and the bath taps weren't working properly. We also didn't have any heating and there were no car parking spaces.

Sub standard hotel with good location
The hotel boasts a fantastic location, but regrettably falls short of expectations given its price point. Contrary to the enticing images displayed, there was a notable absence of afternoon tea options, with the caveat that such bookings must be made in advance via an external platform, such as Groupon. Furthermore, the car park operates on a first-come, first-served basis, with an additional inconvenience of no staff available at the front desk upon my arrival, resulting in a lengthy 30-minute wait just to check-in. Much better hotels on the vicinity!!!
