Good location. Nice pub. Room was old & dirty. We was a family with very young children and was allocated a room on top of an events room with loud music until 1am. We never slept. Very awful stay.

Liked: Cleanliness
Upon arrival, the staff were very helpful. The room allocated was on the second floor. Very spacious and clean room. The bathroom was fantastic, very clean and bright. Both bathroom and the bedroom were well heated. We slept so well. The shower water pressure was not great. The hotel is very nice. The rooms need updating, and could do with some maintenance such as walls abd ceilings.I would definitely recommend this hotel and I would come back again.

Anniversary stay

George Hotel was a lovely old hotel and as a lot of old hotels has no air conditioning. Our stay was during a heatwave but they did provide a fan in the room which was much appreciated. The staff were very lovely and very helpful. The food in restaurant was really good.

This hotel needs a lot of T.L.C looks like money has not been spent for a couple of decades on the room & stair cases. The dining area was clean & enjoyable.

We would stay again!

We had a fantastic huge room and bed with a large ensuite bathroom equipped with bath and double shower. The building is old so sloping floors etc expected, its like an aladdins cave, but we were happy with food, breakfast was a great portion and lots of choice. We had dinner too and a good price for what we had. All the staff were friendly and accommodating.

Great staff, not so great property

The staff were excellent. Tried very hard to assist and were very pleasant. However, the building was dated. Room was dirty, no fan in the bathroom, the ambience of the room was unpeasant. the bathroom was ill equipped. The shower didnt work so I had to take a bath, then the water didnt go down the drain, just sat there!
