The Orchard Hotel & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent
"Super hotel set in campus grounds. The reception/bar area is lovely. Rooms were spacious and well decorated with tea/coffee/biscuits. They were cleaned to a high standard daily. Just a couple of points...there is no dedicated dressing table with mirror which made doing hair and makeup a little difficult, moisturising/body cream would be a useful addition to the toiletries supplied. The sink was very slow to drain in one of our rooms. We will definitely stay again when visiting the area as the location is perfect and the staff friendly and helpful."

"Saw very few staff around. Couple of times reception was deserted for prolonged periods and no one was on the bar either. Maybe just low staffing levels that weekend. Staff we did encounter were friendly. Hotel is clean but a little old fashioned with its decor and felt slightly shabby in the corridors. Room had comfortable beds and a great refurbished bathroom. Parking was plentiful & it’s in a very convenient location. Would stay again if needed to be in the area"
