A heritage hotel with interesting history as a bank and courthouse, amazing staircase and overlooked by the cathedral, walk to restaurants in city centre. Quiet location but limited metered on street parking. Cosy rooms, comfortable and good quality beds. Cooked breakfast but would have liked to see fresh juices and fruit as healthy alternatives. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Would definitely stay again.

Room has no air con. Altho there is a unit in room hotel confirmed they don’t have aircon. Bathroom has no fan so smells from going to loo for a poo stay. Breakfast omelette was dry and filling limited and everything self service except for the cooked breakfast . Water in rooom was nice touch if you buy a drink from bar you have to pay. They didn’t tell me this until I was walking up the stairs to go to my room

There is no doubt that this hotel has seen better days. A number of items in the room required some TLC. Having said that, the receptionist was super helpful, there is some free parking available, the hotel is conveniently located and it was warm and quiet. It worked for me but YMMV.

We were attracted by the appearance of the property on Expedia and the reasonable price. But when we arrived, after check-in time, the person at the desk disappeared for several minutes to find out if the room was ready. We reached the room and were disappointed. It was tiny, with no space to put a suitcase down except on the bed. Thus it was too small to be a single, never mind a double. The bathroom was clean and pleasant, but there were chipped tiles. More importantly, the safe didn't work, which I reported, but the person at the desk said that nothing could be done as they didn't have the master key. Did this mean it would not work in perpetuity? The lobby area and staircase were very elegant, but a bit dark and exceedingly quiet. Overall, a handsome building, but a very disappointing room.

The hotel was central and close to town centre.All the staff were very polite, courteous, and helpful. I was blown away by having a 'bath' in my standard room. Also, having a 'Key' and not a card entry was a nice touch. Unfortunately there's was never a dedicated staff atthtb

Needs a revamp!

The reception is lovely but that’s where it ended. The rooms need some re-decoration. The A/C does not work and was extremely hot. Both bedside lamps did not work and also one in the bathroom. Breakfast really was poor- food quality and over cooked eggs, not great when you’re having eggs Benedict and the eggs are hard boiled! Not really sure this is a four star hotel. Staff however were friendly and polite!

Average stay, friendly staff, decent breakfast

We had an ok stay. We accidentally got sent to a room that wasn’t made up and we were offered a drink while that was sorted out. The room we did get was ok, but the shower was covered in orange and black mould, not just in the corners but the grout throughout. Otherwise the service was great, the staff were really trying hard. Breakfast was great, you got to choose from a menu. It definitely wasn’t a four star experience but not terrible either.

Not a 4 star !!

Could be a lovely hotel. It needs a bit of tlc. We booked a superior double with king size bed, on arrival we asked if there were any upgrades. Which seemingly we were given for free ? When we went to our room it was small and pokey and not very nice at all. Complained at reception and we were then given the room we had booked( before upgrade) this was far more spacious and a better view. The air conditioning wasn't working in the hotel, but we did have a fan supplied, which helped. My wife went for a bath, then we couldn't get the plug out !! Breakfast wasn't to great either. No fruit or pastries. All in all, not a great place to stay. It could be as the close proximity to town is the reason we chose it. But definitely not 4 star. !!
