Staff are friendly and the reception area is nice. However if you're staying in the 'The House' keep in mind this is a slightly scruffy building past the car park that is like a Premier Inn but with smaller rooms.

It was my second time staying at The Roseate and the experience was just as good as the first time. The personnel are fantastic, very professional, friendly and helpful. It was especially nice to see familiar faces, almost felt like being home. The great location, close to all amenities, was an extra bonus. Thanks for making my stay memorable xx

I stayed 2 nights and enjoyed this hotel. Perfect location just a shirt walk to town centre. Also a short walk to the station. Very quiet area but close to everything. The room was clean and spacious and a good size shower (which I prefer to a bath/shower combo). Staff were very nice and helpful. The room has a coffee machine and a kettle, but no cups or coffee pods, sachets or sugar. I called reception and asked them to send something up and they only delivered two pods and a few cubes of sugar. I would have really like d more options and all hotels of this nature that I’ve stayed in have had a good selection in the room. I’d definitely return though.

This is an amazing building that has been thoughtfully converted. The rooms in the main block are large, comfortable and the bathrooms are especially spacious. The bed was a little too firm for me but that is a personal preference- it was huge and had lovely linen. The wallpaper was a little worn in places in my room but overall it felt very luxurious and the staircase and lobby are very grand and impressive. The staff are very friendly and helpful taking into account dietary preferences at dinner time. The thing I didn’t like was that the Carluccio’s next door has its extractor fans blowing out across the car park of the hotel which means there is a constant smell of meat and cooking blowing around that area and into the basement of the hotel. I would stay here again and felt our offer (room, dinner and breakfast) was excellent value for money.

A mixed review - slightly disappointed.
It was a lovely hotel. I came with a partner and my baby girl. An employee kindly offered to push our pram against our wishes. Unfortunately he broke a wheel on the pram. When we came to the room in the other building from the main one, our room had chipped paint on the walls and using the shower would often flood the bathroom. Also, the toilet seat had a weird yellow stain on it as soon as we entered too. Otherwise, it was great. The complimentary penhaligons toiletries were amazing, the AC was great, and the staff were extremely friendly too. The view was not great from our room, but that is fine. I would probably give the hotel 4 stars, but my wife and daughter thought it was phenomenal.
