This was the second time we have stayed at this hotel and we weren't disappointed as everything was as we remembered it. We had a better room this time which was bigger and with a better outlook. The only downside was that it was Christmas party time with two groups in celebrating. The Hotel did apologise in advance and it was only for one night. We eat in the hotel and the food was excellent and keenly priced. The staff were always helpful and happy to serve us.

not great

a noisy neighbour woke me at 4am with singing. Walls are paper thin. The Hotel part is far at the back and is run down with threadbare carpets, big gaps between the door and outside hallway and no sound proofing between rooms means you can hear everything. Radiator made loud clanking noises or dripping noises because its all old. Curtains didnt close properly. television in room was so small as to be unusable. I paid £1 for the drying machine to dry my clothes, only it didn’t work and nothing got dried. For functions like weddings etc this venue is probably ok, but if you need a place just to sleep i would advise going further out of town. Decor is like they did it once in 1970 and then never changed anything.

Old school charm with nicely updated rooms.

Great old club hotel near Dockyards - great location and old school charm in the public areas and the rooms have a nice interior update to modern look. Breakfast & dinner at hotel restaurant very good. Only problem was the glass barrier on shower leaked by and left a large puddle on bathroom floor.
