Disappointing stay
Rather poor- slow check in. Basin tap very loose. Shower doors didn’t function correctly, toilet seat not straight, window latch broken & a glass from the bathroom had toothpaste on it. All easily fixable problems. Toaster only toasted one side, we were told they were waiting for the part- we had stayed a month ago and were told exactly the same. No one at checkout to raise the concerns.

Had a great 2 night stay at the Duke's Folly. Staff very friendly , rooms were very clean and the beds were very comfortable. Although we didn't have a main meal there the menu was was varied and looked very cheap in comparison to a lot of other places. We did however have a continental breakfast which was lovely. Would definitely stay there again.

We booked on the understanding that there was parking as advertised. This is NOT the case there is no parking apart across the rd at £8.50 a day. The room to say the least was extremely limited for space and not very clean. On the second day the room leaked water through the ceiling which was an historical issue due to staining of curtains and walls Was moved to another room which was admittedly larger but wasn't clean it even had an old contact lens on the bathroom floor. The manager actually had the audacity to try to explain to us what a wet room was and not be concerned about spilling water on the floor TWICE.

East to find, conveniently located yards from the main centre, Lord street. Safe parking was available across the road at £8.50 for 24 hours. Room was cosy and clean with lift available. Continental breakfast was superb and included. Cooked breakfasts were available as an extra. About 10 minutes walk from the Atkinson theatre. Very enjoyable stay.

A pleasant weeken away.
The hotel no longer has it's own parking area, it now has tables & chairs set out in that space. There is some on street parking almost outside and a church car park opposite (£8 per day), so no problem really. Made to feel really at home by all staff, for me the continental breakfast was plentiful, my wife went for a cooked breakfast (£6). All in all a pleasaant stay, our 2nd stay, hopefully we will return.

Great location. Shame about the other guests.
Hotel is in a very convenient location for all local amenities. Hotel is decorated to a good order. Staff are friendly and helpful. Bathroom hadn’t been cleaned prior to check in as the sink had residue on it and stains under the bowl. It also wasn’t cleaned during our stay either. Neither was the bin emptied. Not good that despite the hotel being closed for a time earlier on in the year, there was decorating going on right outside of our room. Also there are rooms - ours included right next to reception - so we were woken up every morning by staff and kept awake at night due to guests sitting in there talking loudly. Beds were a bit on the hard side. Heating didn’t work at all, despite staff insisting it was working ok. You cannot control the heating individually in each room, so a number of guests commented on the lack of heating. There was some sort of do going on, on one night, which resulted in people late at night running through the hotel trying doors and going into the empty rooms, including the one next to ours and the noise went on all night. Staff need to control their guests a lot better and schedule their repairs etc when rooms are not occupied. Whilst the stay was ok, I am not sure I would stay there again.

Hotel was clean but very dated. Beds were not comfortable as mattresses were flat. The quilt cover on the bed was also ripped. Breakfast was ok and hot We won’t be returning to the hotel.
