Overnight Stay

Helpful friendly staff from the moment I arrived to the moment I left. The restaurant should be visited. Good car parking facilities Leaving on the Sunday morning well before "breakfast" began proved not to be a problem as a tray with a perfect Continental breakfast was left outside the door while I was using the en-suit shower.

Very relaxing.

This is a lovely small hotel with loads of history. Today it is a very pleasant, quiet place to stay, allowing plenty of relaxation. We enjoyed a very tasty meal in the dining room. The service was everything it should be. In short very pleased and will come again.

Relaxing stay

Stayed in the Yoko room which was very pleasant, large room and had en-suite bathroom. Complimentary bottled water along with tea/coffee in the room which was a nice touch, particularly as the weather was so hot !! Excellent food. Lovely to sit outside in the large rear garden with evening drinks. Staff very friendly and helpful. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Stayed in the Biko room. Large room, striking decor. All the expected room facilities. Beds and floorboards a bit creaky, and the room being above a busy popular bar came with predictable noises into the early hours, particularly Saturday. But, that said, we'd visit again.

Great size room, lovely stay.

Very pleased I found this venue. I was away for business, arrived around 20;00 on the first day, greeted with a friendly smile, assisted with my luggage to the room. Then enjoyed a lovely steak meal. Breakfast was continental style which suited me. This was served by Maggie, friendly and fun to chat with, which being a sole visitor was a nice bonus. Very enjoyable two day, lovely big room, what more could I ask for.

It’s an old property so not likely to be pristine. But loved the staff; food; upgrade; price (with blue light discount) and short walk to beautiful canal and riverside walks and pubs. Bed very comfortable

Underwhelming, has potential but needs some TLC

Staff friendly and welcoming. Bed mattresses very creaky, springs obviously gone. Continental breakfast only during the week, shame no cooked option. Toast, cereals fruit all came at once, so toast got cold. Bananas had been in the fridge, therefore off putting black skins.

Some comunal areas affected by the builders but generally cleanliness was good. The staff were very friendly, breakfasts and two evening meals were very good. The room fine but in the bathroom I would have liked a shelf or a surface by the handbasin and a grab rail in the shower even though the floor was non slip. An enjoyable stay and can be recomended.

Stayed in the newly refurbished Louis room - it was fab. I would rate this excellent but Mon-Fri breakfast has now been downgraded to a continental one and it was OK but not the best. Very carb / sugar based ('normal' sliced bread, cereals, fruit). Tea was weak as was the coffee. i would recommend you add in yoghurt, meat, cheese to ensure some can have a protein based start to the day. There is an attractive dining area but we were in the bar... few tweaks could make a lot of difference

Had a great stay. We were there for the reggae fest at another venue that finished at 8pm & by pure change the hunting lodge had a SKA night on. So was great carrying on. Enjoyed it so much. Had a great sleep with comfy bed & fab cooked breakfast £10 each extra but well worth it. The staff were friendly & helpful. Will definitely stay again.
