1 night away with family
Booked deluxe room, stayed previously a few years ago in the basic rooms and can't say there's much difference other than the view, although the view is nice but overall decent stay and average breakfast.

Lovely stay, friendly staff in all areas of the hotel.
Hotel slightly dated and needs a lock of paint in a few places but that adds to the charm.
Ideal location with parking and also a tram stop just across the road.
Breakfast selection was excellent.
Highly recommend.

One night stay
The hotel was nice and clean. It was extremely busy and booking in at reception took a long while on the Saturday evening. There weren't enough staff to provide the service you would expect and as we had tickets booked for the theatre, we left and returned after our night out. We enjoyed the breakfast which was hot and tasty.
