Very traditional and comfortable service hotel. Location is good, very close to the railway station and the Historic Dockyards. There was however some noise quite late on from a housing estate at the rear of the property (I sleep with a window open). Next time I'll ask for a room at the front maybe. Room and en suite spotless. Very clean and comfy. Traditional English breakfast was faultless.

Room was spacious and warm, very old decor and furnishings. Bed and pillows need replaced, carpet worn away, tv very very small. Grubby around skirting and tiles. Friendly enough reception and main hotel areas clean. Good location for dockyard and train station.
