Polite staff from check-in to check-out, a staff member showed me to my room and explained the keys and access points for after 9pm. The room was in the cottage’s past the enclosed beer garden. The room was clean and tidy, warm enough once the oil radiator was turned on and the bathroom was clean and a great size. The bed was comfortable and I can highly recommend the shower enclosure as it was very big and plenty of towels. There are hot drink facilities in the room and a small wardrobe with a hairdryer. I would recommend this place also for location as it is 2 minutes away from the Christmas markets and the cathedral is very close by along with the wall

A small double room that was clean and tidy and on the ground floor (room 22). Staff were always friendly and helpful. Noise from outside the room at 05.30, which was probably rubbish bins collection. Easy walking distance to shops,xmas market, restaurant's and bars. We parked our car in rhe New market hall car park which is a few minutes walk away, very convenient. The car park cost for two days was £33.00 which is expensive. Almost forgot to mention the great breakfast

We paid extra for a 4 poster room & were given a Brewers cottage room. The bed was uncomfortable & the room was really hot. The staff did not care when approached about our room being downgraded.

Superior room booked wasn’t value for money - due to a poor, unsupportive bed and insufficient bathroom towels for two guests in the room. Both were addressed by housekeeping and management when raised and alternative rooms for the booking were found.

Room was fine, but uncomfortable bed required a new mattress and extra pillows could have been made available. Whoever was emptying glass bins late at night and then early morning bin collections could be more considerate, 6am a bit early for a wake up call. Don’t expect a good night sleep. Staff at bar, lounge were pleasant.

The hotel is spotlessly clean and well maintained. The staff were very friendly and most helpful, particularly when I became unwell in the dining room. We especially appreciated the kindness of the young lady who was serving at the bar. We thoroughly highly recommend the hotel, and enjoyed its convenient position in the centre.

The room was really lovely, warm and felt really homely. It was clean, had what we needed, although in the centre of town, it wasn’t noisy overnight. The staff were really helpful, breakfast was lovely too. Location is brilliant, step outside and you are in the thick of it. Would definitely stay again.
