Arrived Sunday afternoon, all lights in reception were off and felt very unwelcoming. No heating in room was very cold. Was told would turn thermostat up but made no difference. Radiators cool, room cold. Unpleasant damp smell in bathroom.
Very well located. Only disappointment was that the hotel car park was full. If the website had made clear that this needed to be booked, I would have done so. As it was I had to lug heavy bags quite a distance with no offer of help. On the plus side, breakfast was excellent
The room was quite lovely and the bed was very comfortable. It was so nice to be able to walk a few steps out the front door and find good restaurants and shops.
Lovely hotel right in the centre. Comfortable room, good bathroom with lovely toiletries. Tasteful decor in communal areas.
As it is a small hotel it’s a good idea to inform them when you will arrive.
I am extremely cross that they took £70 out of my account on the day we arrived and then took another £120 when I left
And they now say I will get the £70 back in a few weeks !!!
Is this Expedia or the hotel ???
Simply brilliant. Quick, efficient and courteous staff in a fantastic setting.
Tout simplement génial. Personnel rapide, efficace et courtois dans un cadre fantastique.
