I love this hotel, despite it being a little outdated. It has a character to it and the building is truly stunning. Staff is extremely friendly.

Nice break
Overall very good but i think the breakfast isnt as good as it used to be. Parking is limited so not guaranteed a space and the parking outside the hotel is expensive. Kristian behind the bar is very friendly

Séjour princier dans une chambre immense
Grand hôtel style rafiné 1900
Chambre immense, cage d' escalier et couloirs epoustouflants. Service présent et professionnel
Vue correct sans plus un peu bruyant mais c est agréable de vivre dans un palace

Lovely, Historic Hotel
We thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay at this comfortable and very reasonable hotel.
Staff were polite, decor was tasteful and opulent. It was very clean and the breakfast was very tasty.
There was nothing to complain about.

A successful visit.
We were able to leave our bags with reception as we were a few hours early and the room wasn’t ready. The lady on the desk said it never hurts to ask. There was a defect in the bathroom that was quickly rectified by maintenance staff whilst we went for dinner. Breakfast was bob on.

A traditional old-fashioned British hotel.
A beautiful old-fashioned hotel, just what we were looking for.
Everything was fine. Parking not available at the hotel and then not easy and expensive. However, the hotel is worth the effort.

The hotel is stunning specially that it was built 1863. The room a amazing size, guess does go by what you choose and paid for. Wifi has work all time I've been here. I am writing this review while I am still there. Staff have been super friendly. Highly recommend. 100% definitely coming back. Will like to add Aj at the receptionist has been super friendly and helpful.
