I stayed at the hotel for 2 nights and its really cute. The staff were also nice. We had a room on the high street and I was still able to sleep which was great. The breakfast was also spectacular! The 4 star are because of the room being quite basic - mirror and plug (for hair styling) was in a awkward corner. The cleaning service was also poor - not more than 5 minutes went into making our room (just made the bed and cleaned the shower). Floors were left dirty. Overall I would recommend it but make sure you dont get a room on the ground floor near the parking (my friend got one and she wasnt impressed)

We stayed 2 nights for our wedding and have mixed feelings about this hotel. The hotel is beautiful and we loved the rabbit warren feeling and up and down floors. The bar area is nicely decorated although we didn't use it. Our biggest issue was with noise and light. On the first night, it was really warm so we had to open the windows, unfortunately, our first-floor room was in the front of the building next to the noisy road with traffic although the night. The other issue was a street light which lit up the room and as the curtains didn't close properly and the blind cover enough of the window it was bright all night long. On the second night, we decided to use the supplied fan instead of opening the window but this was just as noisy. The hotel does supply ear plugs but I don't really want to have to wear earplugs on a break. It feels harsh to knock stars off for the noise as the hotel probably can't do anything about the noise, but proper fitting curtains and blinds would help. Our other issue which is personnel preference is the hardness of the bed. It's was just far too hard and slim for our liking. The frame was metal and when your are 65 and kick the bottom if it, it hurts! The bathroom was of descent size, the shower could have done with a good scrub and the shower head had a few leeks. Breakfast was nice, a choice of drinks and a good selection to order from. Some of our party selections didn't arrive but this was sorted by the pleasant staff. Overall it's a nice hotel but we wouldn't choose to stay again due to the noise and comfort.
