Disappointing stay

Hotel needs a bit of TLC .i was in a premium room but didn't feel like it! Shower wouldn't change temperature and was luke warm at best and tray filled with water as plug was blocked .couldn’t shower in the morning. No bottle of water in the room so had to go and buy from the bar . Had dinner in the restaurant and steak was tough as old boots ! I did tell the waitress but no discount offered.

Apart from the fact that there was never any parking spaces, the staff seemed uninterested in making me and my partner feel welcome or accommodating us in anyway. The bar staff were lazy and rude. Finally, the pictures of our room did not measure up.

Take an extra layer!

Whilst very clean, the room was incredibly cold. The only source of heating was a small plug in portable radiator, which I had to turn off to go to sleep as I worried about fire risk. Also, the tv wouldn’t turn on.

Surprisingly thin walls given the age of the building, had quite a bit of noise coming through from the hallway and neighbouring rooms (including above). Two different height pillows provided, but unfortunately I found them both very hard and uncomfortable. It did look clean, but there was some rubbish left behind the desk, very easy to see, which of course makes you question the cleaning standards overall. I did like the nice big towels and the food in the restaurant was quite nice. The absolute best thing about this hotel is Aziz at breakfast, he is a superstar and speaking to him is just a wonderful way to start your day.

The outside of the property and the main entrance gives an impression of a well kept, period hotel but once through the reception area the rest of the hotel is tired, dated and generally felt a bit grubby. The room wasn’t so bad but it had a barely working TV, fixtures and fittings were well worn, a door that buffeted each time another was opened nearby and a radiator that clicked continually - not ideal with light sleeping kids. The bathroom was awful - tireed, broken tiles on the wall, grubby shower cubicle and generally felt unclean. It was a room for a single night, the breakfast was nice and in a nice setting but overall a pretty disappointing place to stay.
