A fine if not tired hotel

The stay was comfortable but the decoration and state of the room and corridors was very tired, and one corridor had a horrible smell throughout our stay.

The breakfast room was delightful: light and airy, sunny and with a view of the cathedral. Food was excellent. Room was serviced well every day. Lift was rather scruffy and noisy. Reception staff very helpful and kind, but it was a shame that, when saying 'goodbye', one member of the team didn't look up. Also, suggest having an illuminated sign above the main entrance.

Hotel with parking and great view

Hotel in excellent position overlooking the Cathedral. Slightly dated and chilly in corridors. Breakfast service could be improved by having more coffee machines.

The hotel was very cold, radiator in room barely warm but reception gave us a portable heater. Bathroom very dated, shower head squirting water everywhere. Bed uncomfortable with old mattress. Service at dinner non existent but the food was very nice, also the breakfast. Compliments to the chef. Location excellent, next to the cathedral and Steep Hill.

Staff and service were excellent. Lovely food great breakfast. This hotel has the makings of a great hotel, sadly it could do with refurbishment of the rooms and bar area. I would stay again if rooms updated. Fabulous location.
