A truly thoughtful stay! The hotel’s attention to detail was evident from the moment I stepped into my room—greeted by a charming handwritten note and a delightful selection of sweet treats It’s the little gestures that make a stay memorable, and this one certainly did. The hospitality was warm, the room was immaculate, and the experience felt genuinely personal. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates those extra touches!

A beautiful room with a king size most comfortable bed. We booked on the day of our stay and whilst we had arranged to eat elsewhere we returned for a glass of wine - the bar was well decorated and the staff were most pleasant Would hope to return

Loved this Hotel.

Really friendly staff, our waitress,Jaz, was the best! The room was fantastic, super clean. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The deep soaking bath was really great and there were enough toiletries to last for much longer than our stay. Air con and heating was easy to set and with the smart TV we could cast Netflix and watch a film before bed. The food in the resturaunt was delicious, service was quick and we were happy to eat there both nights of our stay. We didn't want to leave and would go again without hesitation.

Some of the rooms are directly onto the street so can be noisy in the evening. Breakfast wasn’t included and was quite expensive for what was on offer. That said, the room was lovely, the staff excellent, and it was really convenient being in the centre of town.

Night away

We stayed in a really fancy room. It was very comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. The bathroom was lovely with a separate shower and free standing bath. Plenty of lovely Bramley products. There was a fridge with fresh milk and water, tea, coffee and an Illy coffee machine. Some little sweet treats were left for us to enjoy. Breakfast was good too.

My wife & I decided we needed a "just the two of us" getaway, & this establishment flashed up as a great deal for our time-frame. it's easy to reach off the M4, which was great, & even on a Friday evening it wasn't a bark to get to even though we were expecting commuter traffic. We were quickly checked in & allocated our room (#8, ground floor rear of the court yard, nearest the car park!). We weren't at all disappointed with the quality, size & comfort of this recently decorated haven. Lovely big bed, twin chairs & a small table bearing sweet treats, a proper large wardrobe (made of solid oak), a modern & large flat screen TV (which had spare HDMI & USB ports for streaming or stored entertainments), tea & coffee making facilities (a pod machine no less!) & a lovely high ceiling to give that extra feel of space in spades. Plus there was a delightful handwritten note in the room to welcome us to the hotel; a great personal touch in my book! And then there was the bathroom... The deep free-standing bath was quite the attraction for my wife, who loves a good soak at the best of times, but this was going to be as luxurious as possible. The power shower unit, with deluge/rainfall head & the "handheld" option was just brilliant. A huge unit too, so it was great, with the controls being easy enough to understand, & not convoluted at all. All pristine & clean of course, with a very luxurious colour scheme, from the paint to the tiles; it all screamed class!

Noisy

Website tells you to download app for room key, but staff told us it doesn’t work, so an extra, unnecessary step. Original room’s thermostat wasn’t working, so the staff were helpful in quickly moving us to another room. They were very accommodating throughout the stay. HOWEVER, this place was quite noisy because the restaurant had a door the banged whenever any worker went in/out, which was frequent. Additionally, the next room over came back with a group of people and cranked up music at midnight. The staff were quick to respond to our complaint, but the large group was left to stay in the room, which was still loud and disruptive for the following few hours. I hesitated to book given the environment surrounding this spot, but went off the good reviews. While staff was great, the surrounding noise is something to consider when booking, especially on a weekend.
