Pleasant staff, very very small room with old style everything, noisy plumbing and could easily hear the guests next door- thin walls! WiFi on the top floor was poor. Won’t stay again.

Lovely place
Help with bags and a heater provided made the stay near perfect. You need to take your own coat hangers if in room one.

Business Overnight
Nice little hotel, centrally situated. Car park free 6.00pm-8.00am 100m away. Unfortunately their restaurant is only open Thursday-Saturday, but was able to get a good meal at The Farmers just down the road. Room and shower a little small but overall quite adequate.

Room 7; Overpriced for region, No lift; many steps
+ve: lovely decor to large, high ceiling ground floor dining lounge and adjacent cocktail bar with large array of choice and friendly, helpful staff. -ve: Hotel on double yellow lines and no parking. Car parks nearby but pain in the heavy rain. No lift inside and quite a few steps even from street level. Ladies loo up one flight of stairs from bar. I requested top floor room which I received (thanks) although Room 7 was quite space limited. En suite shower room very tired with hole in ceiling, very off white gloss on woodwork and ageing grouting. Shower power and heat good though. +ve:,Wholesome, quality breakfast with fresh fruit/ juices etc and nothing too much trouble, so we left oversated! Overall: pleasant stay, very clean and great food. Small tired room overpriced by c£30 given local competition we thought although larger rooms on level one are the same price apparently. Would stay again if better vfm possible.

Stylish hotel in town centre
The owners and staff offered a warm welcome, and throughout our short stay continued to demonstrate kindness and consideration to a level "above and beyond" usual expectation. The standard of decor is excellent, the bar fabulously stocked, and the food tip top! A highly recommended place to stay, I hope to return soon.

Great Location In The Town
Very modern decor, smart bar, restaurant and newly carpeted. I stayed in a single en-suite room, slightly small if you wanted to sit in and watch TV. It was quiet with no noise from the street or from other guests.

Nearly everything perfect, even the Christmas decorations. One thing to improve more heating in the dining room.

Centre of town but.....
Excellent position for the town centre pubs & shops. The hotel was nearing the end of being re-decorated in style that will fit perfectly with its age and character. There is a gin bar which is really extensive and the staff insist that they can find you a gin to suit your palette. Breakfast was good but the restaurant was closed due to staff holidays but the excellent Farmers Arms is 100 yards away. The rooms are a little cramped but clean, and the bathrooms similar and perhaps a little tired. Perhaps the biggest drawback was there is no parking so the council car park is 100 yards away. Free between 6pm and 8am. Would we stay again? No - it's overpriced for what it is.

Delicious!
We had very relaxing stay after a very long walk through the Lake District. The fine dining offerings are fabulous. The staff were very friendly. The range of gins at the bar was amazing. We wish we had more time to sample everything they had to offer. The neighbourhood has several nice restaurants and pubs if you want other choices.

Just needed a room overnight and mine met all my requirements. Only negative would be lack of parking but I knew that before I booked.

Nice and convenient in the city center.
We were very happy with everything - breakfast was outstanding, room was clean and the location is also very good. The only reason for not giving 5 stars all the way was the room temperature which was to high - very difficult to regulate and to much noise if the window was open. Very good value for money though

Comfortabel hotel
Het hotel is comfortabel en de kosten voor de overnachting zeker waard. Echter, op zondag is de keuken gesloten en ook in de omgeving zijn restaurants gesloten waardoor er bij aankomst geen gelegenheid was voor een avondmaaltijd. Voor een enkele overnachting (in combinatie met het doel van de reis) is het hotel comfortabel gebleken, voor een meerdaags verblijf zal dit hotel waarschijnlijk ook prima voldoen.
