No details about WiFi in the room or how to check out. Went to hand in key in the morning - premises was locked up - so just had to leave the key in the room. Room was dated, but reasonably clean

The room I had was less than basic accommodation. Active molds on the ceiling and the front desk/bar staff treated me like an inconvenience instead of a patron. While using the Wi-Fi they cut off the lights and unplugged the hotspot without warning. I had to ask multiple times for simple things like another towel after being out all day. I left a day earlier than booked because it was so bad.No breakfast as advertised. Zero stars.

I stayed here for a night with my son rather than Bury st Ed and it was an excellent experience. The Hotel has a real charm and character. The rooms are clean. The decor maybe tired and sort of 90s chic. However the number 1 thing for us here was the fantastic staff .From the friendly lady at front of house who checked us in and explained things. The fantastic lady at the bar who showed us local eating choices and breakfast places . It was a real delight to stay here. Good staff make all the difference. I'd stay here again.

The rooms are what you expect in a popular pub and were fine. The car park is a good size and useful for motorcyclists.

Our room was basic but had the essentials and was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was not available for our stay (a tempory issue we were warned about) but there were good restaurants and cafés within a few minutes walk. The rooms are attached to, but separate from, the pub which meant we had the convenience without the noise. The staff were lovely and helpful.
