This is an old style hotel, with limited facilities. The breakfast room was sweet and the staff member who brought us coffees was efficient and friendly. Breakfast was very limited though. The clearly recently renovated shower room was modern and good quality.
The bedroom itself was described as a ‘junior suite’ with ‘terrace with view of the garden’. The room was actually a small double room with a single room adjacent containing a hard bed/ not sofa. There was also a table and two chairs. The ‘terrace’ was a small balcony with a view of the restaurant’s outside seating area. The single room had a proper curtain but our double room only had a see-through tuille curtain. So at night people in the restaurant could look up and see us getting ready for bed, and in the night every time the restaurant security light came on it shone into the bedroom. Very weird! The decorations were chintzy/flowery and old fashioned, with dark wood furniture. The lift only takes one person at a time (I need a lift) so my partner had to walk up or down the stairs. The reception area is tiny and the receptionist not overly helpful or friendly. A male cleaner helped me with my bag, which I appreciated.
This is a two star hotel, with old furnishings which are ‘characterful’ but not particularly comfortable. We paid A LOT for the room on the basis it was a junior suite, I.e. a bit more spacious and luxurious even. It wasn’t. Would not stay again
