Loved most

  • Great location (close to hospital, food, coffee, central)
  • Friendly, conscientious staff
  • Comfortable beds and spacious rooms
  • Free/secure parking
  • Onsite restaurant and available breakfast
  • Good value for price

Worth knowing — Rooms dated and in need of refurbishment · Paint bubbling/peeling and some dirty furnishings · Unstable WiFi · Hallways smell of Dettol · Poor soundproofing / plumbing noise at night · Some rooms feel warm at night or have layout quirks (separate TV)

    “⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a lovely stay as a family of three! The hotel is in a great location and was very easy to get to, which made travelling with the family so convenient. The free car parking was a fantastic bonus, and all of the staff were friendly and welcoming. A special mention to Stephen, who was especially lovely and made us feel very welcome. The rooms were nice, clean and comfortable, and the shower was fantastic — always an important part of a hotel stay! Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily stay here again. Highly recommend for families!”
