We stayed in Ednam on a stopover for one night. The room was good and clean. We had a meal in the bar and this was good but could have done with a bigger menu. The staff were excellent and we would stay again

Staff lovely & very welcoming. Hotel comfortably warm throughout. Bedroom freshly decorated & spacious. Generally, hotel a bit tired looking. Cost of £20 per dog (in one room) seems bit steep.

The hotel was lovely, huge bathroom. Way too quiet for us though. Breakfast was over cooked, eggs on my wife’s eggs benedict were nearly hard boiled, bacon was tough. Very steep stairs down to breakfast room. The bar was closed most of the day, with a bell for service. We tried it but no one came. The staff were lovely, but just not enough of them, and same ones we’re doing everything. With the size of the hotel, this was an impossible task. We ended up spending most of ur time at the hotel opposite.
